This animated short turned out even better than I imagined when I first saw the trailer that John posted just over a year ago (and I had high hopes!) It is a lovingly crafted celebration of the power of books to enhance our lives, heal our wounds, and simply delight us over and over. Bravo!

I remember when this first came out me and my Swedish friend hunted for days to find a version to stow on our computers and gawp over the perfection for hours on end.
Watch it. Ten minutes of your life for a dose of pure elation.

Like seriously, re-watching the Mad Mod episode for about the fifth time trying to fathom it. The layout in this thing is crazy.
Not to mention the backgrounds keep moving all the time how would you even plan this shit.

I’m homesick and Lowry and Oasis and Manchester make it worse so of course I’m going to post this.
I am trying really hard to contain my excitement about this video.
