The Gruffalo DVD Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED!

I'm excited to tell you about a great movie from NCircle Entertainment coming out August 16th called The Gruffalo! My children and I were privileged enough to review a copy of this fabulous DVD! This movie is based on the best-selling children's book that until now I have never heard of! (We will have to read the book soon!) The Gruffalo is such a cute movie about a mouse who encounters three predators and tells them all about a made up creature he calls a "Gruffalo". This movie really kept my kiddos entertained! Here's the movie description:

2011 Academy Award Nominee for Best Short Film! An animated film based on the classic children's picture book, The Gruffalo tells the magical tale of a mouse who takes a walk though the woods in search of a nut. Encountering three animals who all wish to eat him - a fox, an owl and a snake - the plucky mouse has to use his wits to survive. He announces that he is meeting a monster with terrible features, a 'Gruffalo', and the three animals are each panicked into running away. Mouse is now increasingly confident; there is nothing that can touch him..... or so he thinks. That is, until he rounds a corner and comes face-to-face with the terrible creature of his imagination: the Gruffalo himself! Beautifully animated and appropriate for children of all ages. Features the voices of Helena Bonham Carter, James Corden, John Hurt, Tom Wilkinson, Robbie Coltrane, Rob Brydon
