The iTunes store describes The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore, the award-winning short film turned app-style eBook by William Joyce as “an interactive narrative experience that blurs the line between picture books and animated film. Inspired, in equal measures, by Hurricane Katrina, Buster Keaton, The Wizard of Oz, and a love for books, ‘Morris Lessmore’ is a story of people who devote their lives to books and books who return the favor.”

Wired called it a “game-changing eBook app.”
