My daughter read the Sleepy Hollow story and wanted to see the Disney movie version. We watched it together and she thought it was a cute story. She was not too crazy about Mr. Toad's story. There was a part in the movie of Ichabod's story I did remember watching when I saw this movie as a child. I also thought this was a tv special, and not actually a Disney release since I saw the original for the first time on tv, not a movie theater.

The antics of Toad are simply delightful, but Ichabod is the quintessential Halloween story from when I was a kid. I have loved these two stories since I first saw them - and now that they are out in HD, so much fun to see again and share. The Adventures of Mr. Toad still exists as a ride in Disneyland, but sadly was replaced at WDW - a bust of Toad now is on the hill near the Haunted Mansions in the pet graveyard....

First things first: Disney has done an excellent job making these animated stories look beautiful. Being a stupid kid (even at 55), I was expecting a story of Ichabod and Mr. Toad. Nope, two different stories based upon *The Legend of Sleepy Hollow* and *The Wind in the Willows*. What I remember of these stories barely intersects what I find in the animation. Whatever. I'll take it for what it is, two cute stories. They're not mind-blowing, but enjoyable. Barely over one hour, kind of short. Better than being bloated with inconsequential songs, I'm sure.
