Description: Ezra Jack Keat's delightful story of Louie, a young boy who has just moved into a new neighborhood and is lonely for his friends. He converts a shoebox into a diorama of the city, and suddenly he is flying back to his old neighborhood. Frightening voices and shadowy shapes pursue him until the "trick-or-treaters" disclose their identity. Louie discovers that friends are friends wherever one happens to be. (iconographic animation), Louie is lonely in his new neighborhood and converts a shoebox into a diorama of the city landscape. Suddenly, Louie is flying his plane high over the moon and back to his old neighborhood. There, frightening voices and shadowy shapes pursue him until cries of trick or treat disclose who the figures really are. An adaptation of Keats' story using iconographic and animation techniques.
