I first came across the (iPad app) book trailer for this story last July and shared it on my inspiration blog. At the time I was intrigued by the image of the woman flying through the air while tethered to a flock of flying books. It’s something I would very much like to reproduce as one of my Imaginary Girl portraits.

I was pleased to come across the finished short film of the story, because I’d thought it was just an iPad app. It’s a beautifully done animated film about the curative power of story. Be sure to watch it full screen.
