Those who are not strong must be smart...

Father squirrel came up with a nice, instructive story and it filled this well-made and cinematically pleasant to follow short film.

Oscar entry that just made it.

Gruffalo knows the typical setup of a moralistic fairy tale that, in the repetition of three, sets up a story of a mouse dangling at the bottom of the food pyramid. And those who are not strong must be smart. Very nice animation with beautiful use of color, some humor and a lot of playfulness. Based on Donaldson's children's books, of course. Seen it before, but here's a nice review.
