John and I are big animation people. I love this time of year when all of the studios are sending John copies of their films from the past year, for his voting consideration. But this. This. It had me in tears. The inaugural short from Moonbot Studios is a celebration of a book-lover’s relationship with his books. It was nominated for an Oscar this week, and I’m rooting for it with all I’ve got.

If you can’t see the film from where you’re sitting, click here to watch The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore. You can also download it for free on iTunes.
