SynopsisOnce upon a time there was a sensible straight line who was hopelessly in love with a beautiful dot. But the dot, though perfect in every way, only had eyes for a wild and unkempt squiggle. All of the line's romantic dreams were in vain, until he discovered . . . angles! Now, with newfound self-expression, he can be anything he wants to be--a square, a triangle, a parallelogram. . . . And that's just the beginning! First published in 1963 and made into an Academy Award-winning animated short film, here is a supremely witty love story with a twist that reveals profound truths about relationships--both human and mathematical--sure to tickle lovers of all ages., Once upon a time there was a sensible straight line who was hopelessly in love with a beautiful dot.

  • Intelligent basis for cartoon.

    I purchased this because I’m a fan of the animated version. It’s a shining example of how we’ve been dumbed down as a society, today.
