Flight of Fancy
THE FANTASTIC FLYING BOOKS OF MR. MORRIS LESSMORE by William Joyce. Atheneum, 2012.
Morris Lessmore is swept away by rough winds. When he settles back to earth, he finds himself in front of a house laden with books. Lessmore opens the world of books and reading to countless folks who come in search of something. Dedicated to Bill Morris and Colleen Salley, two of the greatest lovers of story in the children's book field, this book was first an Oscar winning film. It is also an incredible app for the iPad.
