Abstract

Od najranijih dana slikovnica i animirani film prisutni su u djetetovu životu. Upravo iz
tog razloga, kroz analizu slikovnice i istoimenog animiranog filma naziva „Fantastične leteće
knjige g. Morrisa Lessmorea“ u ovom radu detaljno se razrađuje način i mogući utjecaj istih na
djecu. Težište rada koncipirano je na iznošenju svih, kako pozitivnih, tako i negativnih aspekata
slikovnice i animiranog filma. Završni rad prožet je opisima nastanka slikovnice i animiranog
filma te uključuje i biografije Williama Joycea (autora i ilustratora) te Joea Bluhma (ilustratora).
Rezultat suradnje autora i ilustratora nastanak je ovih dvaju djela – animiranog filma i
slikovnice kojima se nastoji ostvariti poučavanje djece o važnosti knjiga. Izuzev navedene
edukativne svrhe, ovaj duet slikovnice i animiranog filma, djeci bi trebao predstavljati i izvor
zabave. Nakon razrade biografija autora i ilustratora najprije se vrši pojedinačna analiza
animiranog filma i slikovnice. Elaboracija biografija popraćena je detaljnom analizom simbola
prisutnih u djelima usporedno s njihovim mogućim tumačenjima. Naposljetku, a prije samog
zaključka, ovaj rad sadrži komparaciju slikovnice i istoimenog animiranog filma.

Abstract (english)

Animated movies and children's books have a constant presence in children's
development since the very beginning of their lives. Therefore, this paper will analyse the ways
and possible effects of children's books and animated movies on different aspects of children's
lives through side-by-side analysis of the work " The Fantastical Flying Books of Mr. Morris
Lessmore" in its animated and book version. The core of the research is based upon naming the
positive, as well as the negative aspects of the book and adapted animated movie. In addition
to this analysis, this paper also mentions the history of children's books and animated movies,
as well as a biography of William Joyce and Joe Bluhm, the work's authors and illustrators. The
result of their creative collaboration is the work " The Fantastical Flying Books of Mr. Morris
Lessmore" which seems to have succeeded in its goal of teaching children the importance of
books. Alongside the educational purposes of the animated movie and children's book, the work
provides a fun activity for children. After elaborating biographies of the authors, this paper
focuses on the side-by-side analysis of the animated movie and the children's book. The
elaboration is followed by a detailed analysis of the symbols incorporated in the work as well
as the possible meanings behind them. Finally, before the very conclusion, this paper contains
a comparison of the similarities and differences between the homonymous book and the
animated movie.
