No question about it: for quality children's animation not content to simply ape the Pixar aesthetic, Europe is the place to be. And if you want to get more specific than that, then head to France where a seemingly constant stream of extremely high quality, artistically innovative animated films are either being directly produced or backed financially.
And the latest picture in the works there is Kerity: La Maison Des Contes. English language information is proving difficult to find on this one but the trailer tells you all you need to know. The story revolves around a young girl who loves to read, her main friends being the characters of the books she reads, who come to life and step off the pages to join her. The concept is simple and timeless, the animation simply beautiful. Yes, please.

Nice, great art. My daughter is going to love this one.
