The Joy of Books – The Books that Danced

By May 17, 2016Video

I stumbled across this wonderful stop motion video today filmed at Type Books in Toronto and it’s such bookish loveliness that I had to share it with you. The Joy of Books indeed, and this video makes the books in store dance while the bookshop is closed.

I can’t imagine the time and work that went into filming it, no doubt hours and hours of stop start motion filming to create just two minutes of film. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Now you know what the books get up to while we’re not looking.

    This is our family bookstore and, yes it is magical. Type is across from one of the most beautiful parks in Toronto. Buy a book, buy a crossiant with Brie and arugula and go into the park to read. It’s pure heaven. They have one of the best quality selections in Children’s literature in Canada. Thanks for showing this amazing video.
