There was this cartoon about a line that falls in love with a circle.
I have no idea the name of it or really anything else about it. I would like to show it to my children. Does anyone have a youtube link or any other link, so they can see it?

5. I didn't realize that was Norton Juster but it makes perfect sense
His book The Phantom Tollbooth is one of the best children's books ever and made math so much fun.
