When two ants stay behind and take a nap in the sugar bowl, they are in for a wild ride. A dramatic black- and- white presentation of the alphabet which depicts a mysterious transformation of each letter. In a story recounted through the daily log of Captain Allan Hope, the sailors aboard the Rita Anne become mesmerized and transformed by a mysterious glowing rock, and only music and books can restore them to normal. On a terrifically rainy day, Ben has a dream in which he and his house float by the monuments of the world. Travel with young Walter on a fantastical adventure as he journeys—by way of his bed—into a polluted dreamscape world that wakes him up to our collective and individual environmental responsibility. Being a pet store hamster isn’t much fun for Sweetie Pie, but life in human homes proves perilous. As Sweetie Pie gazes out of his cage at the squirrels frolicking in the trees, he wonders if he’ll ever have the chance to feel the wind in his fur.
