Description

FROM THE CREATORS OF "AN AMERICAN TAIL"

Join Littlefoot and his Friends on the World's First Great Adventure.

The Land Before Time is an enchanting animated adventure that will charm the whole family.

This magical journey begins long ago when dinosaurs roamed a land threatened by earthquakes and volcanoes. A young brontosaurus named Littlefoot, finding himself all alone, sets off in search of the legendary Great Valley, a land of lush vegetation where dinosaurs can thrive and live in peace. Along the way, he meets four other youngsters, each one a member of a different dinosaur family. During their journey, they encounter incredible adventures and obstacles and learn unforgettable lessons about life and what it means to stick together.
Presented by George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, and directed by Don Bluth.

The Land Before Time is a classic tale of hope, survival and love.
