The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A host introduces young viewers to books by drawing scenes while a portion of the book is read. He then encourages them to find the book and read the rest of the story.

What happens
Cover to Cover is an educational program broadcast on public television in the United States and Canada from the 1960s to the 1990s. Its host, John Robbins, would introduce young readers to one or two books, then draw scenes as a portion of the book was read. Robbins would then encourage his viewers to find the book in question and read the rest of the story. The program was also known by several other titles, always following the same general format.
