A fall film

Can you believe there are only two more days left of "summer" before the autumn equinox? It's already getting noticeably darker earlier, the air is crisp, and I have that tell-tale craving for apple pie and cider donuts.


To get in the right mood, check out this 1967 short film directed by Chuck Jones based on Frank Tashlin's The Bear That Wasn't. Then, after you've fallen in love with it, swing by to check out the New York Times Book Review reprint of the story, and our other fall books, including Jon Muth's latest picture book, Zen Ghosts.
