I really like the whole style–the paper cut-outs, the music, the colors. The only thing I don’t like is when the words go blurry in the background.

Thanks!

I like the music. Definitelu makes it interesting. I was actually more consumed with the music than the description of the book. The only part I caught was “Isn’t it fun falling apart?” I think that’s pretty cool.

LOL, I love the little trailer though the rapid pace of the final sequence when he goes out to get milk is a bit to quick for my tired eyes.

I’d like to be entered.

I too could not get the video to work on my computer. But the premise of the book sounds interesting. Please enter my name in the drawing if I can do so without seeing the video.

I liked how it had a lot of movement to it. (It reminded me of the intro to Desperate Housewives.) Much more interesting than the trailers that just show a picture sliding across the screen. The music was cool, too. For a minute there I thought they were going to play House of the Rising Sun. Heh.

Thanks! :0)

Very well done trailer. This is actually the first book trailer I have watched. It certainly drew me in and I am now very interested in this book. I shared the link to the trailer with a few folks. Thanks for the chance to view and to win a copy.
