Hello friend - happy Wednesday!
I've already shared a word this week, so thought that today's gift might celebrate my other loves:
books ~ creativity ~ colour ~ fun!
Many thanks to the ever-inspiring 'Brain Pickings' for sharing this forward.
I wonder if you'll be like me and have to watch it several times?
Happy day!
PS: I forgot to let you know my favourite 'bit'....the part where the little book is reading the big book under the 'itty-bitty' book light - precious!

I liked the piano sequence with the black and white books. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAha-didn't see that!
DeleteOh I adored this, Felicity. As you knew I would ☺. I loved seeing Babar striding into the distance at the beginning and the Staedtler Triplus Fineliners packing themselves away at the end. I bought a packet of them last week! J x
ReplyDeleteGreat pick J - I had to go back and look for Babar, one of my faves too.

Love Barbar too, although remember finding the font hard to read as a tiny child, as it was semi cursive. Off for the weekend, taking a book to read on the plane, aren't you proud of me?? Love Posie
ReplyDeleteIndeed I am my lovely friend, indeed I am.

Ohhh my what a great video & it must have taken ages to create I loved it!!! So much to see loved the last frame too :))
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely rest of the week Felicity :))
Imagine setting it all up, nevermind thinking of the concept
DeleteGosh yes it would have taken for ever Felicity they must have had so much patience but well worth it in the end :)
DeleteThis is adorable F! I will send this
ReplyDeleteInk on to several book buds who will adore it too! I have to watch it a couple more times myself. Xx
Nice one MM!
DeleteOh it is just gorgeous! I have sent your link on!!!

I thought that this might delight you Jules.
DeleteHappy day!

Oh now I loved that! Who wouldn't?
ReplyDeleteI cannot imagine how long it took to turn all the books around so many times, seriously. It is so inspiring to know people are out there taking the time to create joyful things like this. So much creativity.
Thanks F :)
My teen who pegs herself as a bit of a stop-motion guru [rightly so too] was absolutely gobsmacked by this Jeanette.
DeleteHappy day!

That was amazing, Felicity! I'm going to send that link to my lvoely book shop owning friends:) Happy Weekend! xx
ReplyDeleteI wonder if your friends have ever imagined the shenanigans that happen in their store once the lights are turned out and the doors locked?
Deletexx
Hell yeah!! Let the printed word thrive!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your enthusiasm Andrea!

Wonderful, beautiful and inspiring all at once. My goodness I love books! :)
ReplyDeleteDeep sigh & a nod from me Andrea.

That was wonderful. I am a huge book fan and totally agree - there is nothing like a book.
ReplyDeleteThat must have taken ages to put together!! Makes me want to buy some more books now :)
I can imagine your Cherubs having the best fun making stop motion videos in the Easter holidays - show them this and they'll go bonkers with playdough and papercraft etc.
DeleteMany of my treasured Birthday cards are now stopmotionified by the teens.
xx
utterly fabulous
ReplyDeletethank you for sharing
I love Babar and Mr Pusskins
