An Ornament’s Tale is a colorful storybook adventure that looks as slick as a CGI-animated movie. That’s because the delightful illustrations are indeed the result of artwork rendered in film-quality computer-generated 3D graphics so real the images look like they are about to leap off the page.
Add that to an adorable story about a cast of Christmas tree ornaments who are on a journey to find their home on a holiday tree, and you’ve got a real treat kids of all ages will love all year long. The story follows Percy and his fellow ornaments who get left behind at Christmastime. Stuck in an attic, they long to once again be hanging on a tree. They set out to find their destiny, even as some naughty Halloween ornaments try to sabotage their plans.
An Ornament’s Tale is truly unique, and even adults will get a kick out of the creative story and the eye-popping CGI characters that bring this sure-to-become-a-holiday-classic to life.
