The Joy of Books : Organizing the Bookcase

It all started with YouTube user crazedadman organizing his bookcase. 

This weekend we decided to organize the bookcase. It got a little out of hand.

Then he and his wife "took it to the next level" by spending many nights with many volunteers stacking, moving and animating books at Type bookstore in Toronto. Part short film, part passionate love letter to books, and part commercial, all the books shown are available for purchase at the store. 

Everything you see here can be purchased at Type Books.

You can't do that with Kindles, Nooks or iPads.
