Even more so: the voices of Little John and Baloo were both provided by Phil Harris. However, it is my humble opinion that that only adds to the awesomeness. He was one cool cat, daddy-o.

I remember when I read it in sixth grade how I just wanted to plow through Taran Wanderer because of the lack of action... and this time, how deeply it touched me.

Very well put. I recently read Lloyd Alexander's The Book of Three series to my kids-- which I semi-dismissed as LOTR-lite-- and the writing and storytelling is absolutely masterful, much more so than Tolkien.

You should buy it (locally) anyway... it's a great read, for much more than that one section.

The only Potter that ever mattered in my house. RIP Col. by Bayoublasterin pics

[–]lobstah4 0 points1 point ago

Whenever I have to sign something in front of anybody, I always say, "Shermannnn... Teeeeee... Potter." I am 45 and I remember that in the early 70's my fairly-conservative parents would not let me watch MAS*H because it was "liberal".
