  2. I think it was about being inspired by a book, if you inspired you'll start inspiring others who don't know what in life. So inspiring people to read doesn't mean you'll become a better reader it will also make you a better writer. Reading book can rise up your imagination and also your reading and writing skills. Books can make you realize something in your life and you can fix it.

When the tornado was gone, everything was bad. Then a women came flying with books. One book came to the man and waved at him. After waving at him the man started walking and came to a big house full of books. Has he was staying, he helped one book to start flying because the book was old.

  6. The movie was about this guy taking very good care of the books because when the guy first came to the house, he surprisingly realized that there were flying books inside the house. After that he knew that the books had to be looked after so the books wouldn't break apart.

  7. This movie is about a man and his writing. He was writing on his journal until a tornado hit. And all of his words on his journal started drifting away. But he didn't loose the journal. So he got it back and kept it. Um, then when the storm passed everything landed wrong. And everyone was sad, until a women saw the man gave a good book to him, to lead the way to a place where there are books.

  9. The movie is about a man who was writing in his journal. But the weird storm hit the town and destroyed the down. But the houses never bored. They just landed like they're toys. The man goes in a library where the flying books are. The book that he wrote on got empty and blank like it wasn't wrote on before. A book led the man to a place where the library is. His book that he wrote on could never write fly until all the pages were written in them. The man started to take care of the books in the library. The man got old and went to the door. He looked back and the books started to fly around him very fast, then he flied with the books like they were balloons. Even his book that he wrote in started to fly around. When he flew off, the book went with them. But the book he wrote in returned and was taken by a little girl. The little girl started to read then the movie ended.

  11. the movie is about a man who took care of the books that later was destroyed by a tornado while he was writing a book. He chased that one book he was writing on and then when the tornado was out he landed on land and with the book in front of him. He later saw Flying books with a woman hanging on them, then he went to that one big library. he wrote his book and lived with the personified books that could fly and have arms. He gave out books to many people for them to read. There was a really old book that couldn't fly and was breaking apart and the man helped him. He lived until he got old and went away. later a lady came and stayed with the library books. The End. This movie is Magical. With flying books. crazy kassaqs.

  12. the movie was interesting.. it was about a guy that was chasing his book in the tornado. when he got his book, all that he wrote was gone and flew out of the book and couldn't go home, because his house was distroyed by the tornado.along his discovery of the town, he looked up and saw a girl holding a leash of books, flying. he looked at his book and threw it in the air, but it didn't fly, the girl noticed the man and a book flew down to lead him to a house of books where he was saving books from being read or whatever, and he stayed there for the rest of his life, writing a book, and giving them away. it seemed he enjoyed books, reading and writing. at the end of the story, he was done with his book at an old age and was leaving. on his way out the door, he took one more look around, then books were circling him and he became young again. he flew and the book that lead him to the book house, was sad until another book appeared with a young girl and the story became a new beginning from that end.

  13. The video was amazing.... I like how the person lost his letters in his book but then he writes on it. I liked the part when he fixed that old book and made it comeback to life. The person was sad and he was black and white but he gets happy and turns colorful.. I liked the part when the books but on there book jacket and leave and others books that fry... I even like the part when he reads the old book and they wonder out to book Island.. It's like his dream to help books be read to them people that lost there books.

  14. The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore is an amazing story of a man who was blown away by a horrible storm and left with nothing but his cane, hat, and an empty book which, he later on, wrote in. But later on while he was walking seemingly to no where, there was a strange woman who flew by with flying books guiding her. That woman left him a book of Humpty Dumpty, that led him to his path to a great library and a new start in life to be giving books to gray, sad people who happen to have come by. This library had many surprises. For example, he saved a book that was old and unread by reading it. As he was growing older he wrote in that empty book with his own story.
    I wanted to see that movie one more time... Even if it didn't have anybody speaking or saying anything, the movie said a lot of things.

  15. The movie was about a man that was writing something in a book. Like he wanted to be a author of the book. Then a tornado happened and the words flew off. When the tornado was gone, everything was bad. All the houses were upside down and every person that showed up were sad. Then a women came flying with books. One book came to the man and waved at him. After waving at him the man started walking and came to a big house full of books. While he was staying, he helped one book to start flying because the book was old. Then, he gave out books to lots of people. Later, he wrote a book and he finished it when he was old. After finishing the book he left the house. And the book that he wrote was flying, and went to the house. When a girl came, the book went to her and stayed with her. And... The end came.

  16. It was about this guy who writes books. He lost his words when a hurricane came by, and wrecked the town he was in. He went in this place that was filled with color. Then he died when he was old and books took him to another point. I think the point of this movie is keep books alive.

The point of the movie is about a man who is in charge of the library and retires.
