The Land Before Time: The Anthology - Volume 1

The first four animated films from the prehistoric 'Land Before Time' series.

In 'The Land Before Time' (1988) young, orphan brontosaurus Littlefoot (voice of Gabriel Damon) sets off with a gang of fellow baby dinosaurs in search of a legendary green valley that offers safety from the plague that is sweeping the world.

In 'The Land Before Time II - The Great Valley Adventure' (1994) the young dinosaurs are coaxed into the forbidden 'Mysterious Beyond' by the mischievous Cera (Candace Hutson), and they realise that everything in their world is not as idyllic as they had thought.

In 'The Land Before Time III - The Time of the Great Giving' (1995) Littlefoot (Scott McAfee), Cera, Ducky (Heather Hogan), Spike (Rob Paulsen) and Petrie (Jeff Bennett) have to find a new source of water when a meteorite plunges into the Great Valley and their fellow prehistoric pals start getting grumpy.

Along the way they have to battle the dreaded Sharpteeth, dodge a fierce fire and avoid angry velociraptors.

But through it all, the friends work as a team. In 'The Land Before Time - Journey Through the Mists' (1996) the Longnecks bring news of change from beyond the Great Valley: of mists and strange creatures that inhabit the marshes and trees.

This does not affect Littlefoot and his friends, until he has to search for the petals of a golden night flower in order to cure his ailing Grandpa (Kenneth Mars).

Unfortunately, the flower can only be found in the Land of Mists.
