James and the Giant Peach (Walt Disney Pictures Presents) Simon Callow, Richard Dreyfuss
Walt Disney Home Video, 1996
Great Innocent Fun
+ Please Release This On Blu-ray ! + Roald Dahl is the greatest!
I saw it twice in theaters when it first came out. This is a wonderful story of courage that should be read to a child first then show them the DVD to bring their imagination alive.

The Furious Flycycle Jan Wahl
Tor Books, 1994
Great book for 8 to 12 year olds
+ Wonderful fun! + Supurb! A must have for any bookshelf.
This remains one of my favorite books from childhood. I learned to make ice cream as an adult wanting to duplicate the heroics. For some reason (maybe physics class) I gave up on the flying bicyle part. My well-worn original paperback ca. 1972 sits on my son's bookshelf waiting for him to be old ...

Willow Val Kilmer, Joanne Whalley
20th Century Fox, 2001
Fantastic Movie!
+ DVD from amazon + good movie
Willow was such a delightful movie. I've had the movie for years and about every two years I play it again--it's that entertaining. You would think Hollywood would take the hint and had sequels to this movie. I feel this way about Clash of the Titans also--still playing it every so often since ...
