Holiday gift guide pick "It's an honest, fun look at the history of the stop-motion giant (you'll find yourself saying out loud "I didn't know they made THAT!") and when it's over, you'll want to fire up your DVDs and make some cracking toast with cheese to watch some of these treasures. The book is a keeper, one to be read and referenced repeatedly."
