poor forests !
"A legend well used by an energetic and high sweet short animation. The giant, his people, his ox and the modernization of USA . Cut trees - too many for my taste and for the contemporary ecological habits - , good music and few good spoons of humor. And the comfortable end. An old fashion Disney animation preserving its freshness and all the special flavors in the forms of nostalgia...."

This was the last "Disney Favorite Stories" tape to have the "Disney Favorite Stories" logo before the short film. Later releases would go straight to the main program.
