This bit of based-on-the-book Oscar fun came to us by way of Shelf Awareness. Yakima’s Encore Books is sponsoring a contest for readers to award Oscars to their favorite book characters or subjects who appeared in Oscar-nominated movie versions this year. So the consideration is for Billy Beane, NOT Brad Pitt. As a sweet and whimsical bonus, while visiting Encore’s Facebook page we came upon and finally watched the nominated short that’s been buzzing around us the past couple of weeks, The Fantastical Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore. Kind of like Up for book lovers.
