Yes, you read it correctly. That beautifully illustrated book from our childhood is returning, but in the form of a movie.
View the trailer:

It's going to be an animated flick, but it stays fairly true to the original feel created by the artwork. The only downside to the film, is that it doesn't come out until
November of 2004. But I'll wait, because, well... I have to.
I personally have great memories of my elementary school librarian reading my class this story every Christmas. She would give us a little chocolate and a bell, just like in the story. To be honest, I still have the little bell in a drawer at home.
When it comes out, I'm definitely taking my younger brothers and sisters to see this, it's going to be great..
