Stand By, Mother

FilmDrops says

When a mysterious book comes alive in the hands of a curious boy, he finds himself on a magical, musical journey—without ever leaving his garage.

Dance, song, and aerial performance combine as Felix learns about planet Earth and the dangers it faces in this moving and charming eco-fable for kids, by kids.
