A box set of the first three prehistoric animated children's adventures. In 'The Land Before Time', young dinosaur Littlefoot is orphaned and so he sets off with a gang of fellow baby dinosaurs in search of a legendary green valley that offers safety from the plague that is sweeping the world.

From his childhood in rural Missouri to his legendary stature as a film and television icon, Walt governed his life with imagination, ingenuity, and scrupulous attention to detail. Faced with both public failures and massive success, he revolutionised the art form of animation, always seeking innovative solutions, cutting edge technology, and new ways of storytelling. Devoted to perfection, Walt was not always easy to work with, but no one can deny his profound talent and impact. Charting Walt's progression from farm boy to actor to artist, animator, director, and entertainment celebrity, Walt's own words are presented and contextualized within Doreen Rappaport's signature compelling prose. Illustrated with vivid authenticity by animator/painter John Pomeroy, this stunning entry in the award-winning Big Words series reveals a man of deep and varied passions with a constantly evolving vision, and a storyteller above all.

D places their books were to render celebrated; such sought out Lady Meath, whose best days had passed in Further India, and who dwelt upon the days of her exile with tenderness, -- the only tenderness in her character, except the pseudo fondness for her son. She could scarcely remember her brother's face, as she parted from him in early youth; and what did she care for Dora, whose mother she had never seen, and only heard of her as one whose people were in a contrary direction to hers; -- Brisbane, Australia, what were they to her i.
