Disney Classic Short Films :: DVD Reviews
Disney has finally released their collection of fairy tale shorts on DVD! Kidzworld takes a look at Mickey and the Beanstalk, The Three Little Pigs and The Prince and the Pauper.
Mickey and the Beanstalk
In this beautifully animated homage to Jack and the Beanstalk, Mickey, Goofy and Donald climb a ginormous beanstalk that leads to a magical land where everything is oversized—including a nasty giant named Willy!
