Melody Time (DVD)

The Land Before Time DVD 1

Advantages: Great film, good for a cry, lovely characters & happy ending
Disadvantages: Littlefoots mother dies :'(

The Land Before Time is the ultimate Dinosaur equialent of Bambi. In that it's basic underllying theme is littlefoot becoming an orphan due to his mother being killed by a preadator. ( in this case by a 'sharp-tooth', in bambi's case, a human sports hunter ). This fantastic old skool animated film is work from Steven Spielberg, and was directed by Don Bluth, to produce a tear jerking classic film with a soundtrack composed by James Horner. Originally released in cinemas in 1988 (can you believe I was like only 3!) it quickly became a chart topper and became even more popular when it was eventually released on VHS. And now in 2006, we are graced with the DVD format, to enjoy the spacousness of a DVD cupboard. Which is great you can fit like 30 DVD's in the space of 10 VHS cases. And is the main reason, together with the purchase of a DVD ...

Review of The Land Before Time 10 (DVD)

The truth about Melody Browne

Advantages: A brilliant, thought-provoking read
Disadvantages: Hard to put down!

This is another fantastic book by Lisa Jewell. I have read some of her other work - such as Vince and Joy, 31 Dream Street, and Thirtynothing. This book begins with a prologue, which sees the main character, Melody, at the age of nine, outside her house which is burning down. Her parents are with her. The book then moves to the present day and each chapter then goes from the present day, back to when Melody was a young girl. It goes back and fore between the two. In the present day, Melody is 33 with a son, Edward, who is about to turn 18 (she had him at 15). She is a dinner lady at Edward's school, and she has just met Ben who asks her out on a date. She agrees to go and it changes her life forever. They go to see a hypnotist's show and when he calls her up on to the stage, she passes out, but later she finds herself ...
