What a lovely short animated film by college student, Amy Ninh. I love the style of animation; it's super realistic and made me think I was watching a wonderful picture storybook come to life.

The storyline follows a community of woodland rabbits and other critters at their neighborhood bookstore, famous for being a literary haven safe from dangerous predators. As they prepare for a book launch by a famous author, everyone gathers to meet her -- everyone including the fox!

The animation is the star of the show here as it is created using the Blender platform and oozes with charm and realism. The creatures, especially the rabbits that run the bookstore are just yummy. I wanted to adopt several and bring them home. The backgrounds are very detailed and, for any book lover, reminiscent of your favorite local book store that hosts these types of community events. I particularly like the sign in the woods saying "no predators allowed." It's a cute reminder that the bookstore is a safe haven for the community. That is, until, the fox shows up! As you might guess, chaos results, but the ending takes a twist and, without giving it away, let's just say "no creatures were harmed in this film."

The film's message is about the importance and comfort of community. Don't we all need a neighborhood book store like the Woodland Book Nook in our lives?

I give The Woodland Book Nook 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5-12. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!

The Woodland Book Nook, the bookstore run by rabbits, is a literary haven for the small woodland creatures away from dangerous predators. When a famous rabbit author visits the store for a book signing, every creature wants to meet her... including a fox.
