If you're getting excited about the new live-action Dumbo movie
from Disney Studios, take a moment to revisit the classic animated
movie instead, with another truly beautiful storified version of
the movie with that utterly glorious production art and animation
stills illustrating the story throughout. The story of a young
elephant with a difference - born into a circus, but separated from
his mother (in a scene that still reduces me to tears even after
all these years), Dumbo soon realises his huge flappy ears mean
that he can do something that no other elephant can. He can fly, he
can fly, he can fly! This highly collectable book once again
extends Studio Press's impressive range of books chronicling the
processes and sketches that led to the final movie. As we said
before, this is nigh on essential for Disney fans, but also fans of
animation and art as the illustrations in this are just absolutely
gorgeous. I mean take a look at them!I love the way these feel like
classic storybooks I had as a kid.t's also great to hear that more
are on the way in this fab range, including Aladdin, which should
be out in the blink of a Genie's eye! YESSSS! Can't wait! * Read it
