   On June 6th Walt Disney Studios released "The Big Top Edition" of their masterpiece Dumbo. This loveable story is about a stork who delivers a baby elephant to Mrs Jumbo, a veteran of the circus, with truly enormous ears. The newborn is subjected to merciless ridicule because of his ears and is dubbed "Dumbo". Dumbo is relegated to the circus' clown acts; it is up to his only friend, a mouse, to assist Dumbo to achieve his full potential.

A True Classic
    A Disney "classic" that actually is a classic, Dumbo should be part of your video collection whether or not you have children. The storytelling is minimal in Dumbo, the songs are haunting and the characters well developed. According to Keith Simanton of Amazon, "If you don't mist up during the "Baby Mine" scene, you may be legally pronounced dead." This Big Top Eighth Edition features Sing-Along Songs, a DVD Storybook, a new digital transfer, and much more.
