**BOOK SYNOPSIS FOR SECRETS OF THE SNOW GLOBE**
After starting to collect snow globes with the help of her grandmother, Lily has questions. She wants to know who invented them, what the snow is made of, and how the tiny scenes look so magical when she peers inside. As she researches and experiments, Lily learns about light waves, magnification, and density—all while gathering ingredients to make her own snow globe.

Story
A Psychedelic Delight for All!
This gem of a movie, brought to life by legendary director and animator Chuck Jones (Road Runner, Tom and Jerry etc.), is something magical and downright strange.

It has been 52 years since it's release, and before tonight probably 20 years since I saw it last. I see now that this classic piece of children's cinema is a timeless classic, that I think for the most part sadly remains forgotten.

The story itself feels very similar to "Alice in Wonderland" , with hints of "The Wizard of Oz" added to make something honestly quite unique.

Another thing that is essential to mention in this review, is that I believe it is enjoyable to those literally any age.

Overall, whether you want warring kingdoms, princesses, lovable characters, strange monsters or just a great story with an excellent moral, this is the film for you!

Enjoy, folks!
