The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore by William Joyce

Morris Lessmore loves words, stories and books, and after a tornado carries him to another land, dreary and colorless, he finds a single book in color that leads him to an amazing library where, he learns, the books need him as much as he needs them.

What book lover wouldn't love this book? A terrible storm sends Mr. Lessmore off into a new world. There, he becomes the caretaker of an amazing library where the books speak and fly. He begins to write his own book, the story of his life. When he completes it, he is old, but the books change him into a young man and he is sent back into his old world. A young girl comes to take over as caretaker of the library.

An enhanced e-book that is certain to charm its readers.

Did storytime again at work and had a very happy audience for this sweet tale. There are a few big words, but ones that can be quickly explained. Definitely recommended! Great discussion starter about how stories can speak to us.
