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.

Beautiful, moving and wonderfully illustrated. One of my faves. William Joyce is an institution.

This is a beautifully illustrated picture book about Mr. Lessmore, a man who loves books and can thrown himself into them. His books become his family. This book talks about the cycle of life and ends on an optimistic note, of the next generation of book lovers. I borrowed this book from the public library.
