I think Mr Morris lessmore and the other librarians pass on there books to the new children and each time a child comes and leaves than each child's picture comes up,strange.

In the story one part is really confusing when the tornado/Hurricane hit Mr Morris lessmore he landed somewhere and it's really confusing.

Samantha, do you think the movie directors wanted to make that part confusing? Do you think it's ever good to have something seem confusing in a book or movie on purpose?

I noticed when Mr. Lessmore slept on that book in French

Ethan, why do you think the filmmakers chose to make that book (and the very old one) in French instead of English? It's an American movie - why wouldn't they just make everything in English? What do you think?

I think he died in the end because he wrote "the end" at the end, and humpdy dumpdy sat on the "wall".

I noticed that at first everyone is black and white, but when everyone reads a book, they have color.

In the end, Mr. Morris Lessmore looks like the woman because he was flying with the books.

In the end, a little girl is the new librarian.And when the books take her away to(maybe heaven),another librarian takes over.So you get the idea.

After he bumped into the biker, Mr. Morris Lessmore walked around some letters, and that was when I saw that the letters were H,L and O on the floor from the sign that said HOTEL.

Ahh the places we go, the people we meet, the books we read, the influences we have, amazing what lasting impressions they leave on us or others. Sometimes More is Less and sometimes Less is More, but in the end when the books start to fly, what will you remembered by! I Enjoyed the short film. Now where and whencan I purchase one of these flying books...

I think that every person who looked after the library wrote a book and put it in the library when they went to heaven,so the very first librarian
wrote a book and the very old book was probably one of the first books to be there.
