- Videos: Weston Woods Classic Children's Collection

We challenge you to find these remarkable films anywhere other than AWN!
Typically offered only to the educational markets, this collection from
five of America's most acclaimed children's book authors are guaranteed to
entertain kids and parents over and over again. For almost half a century,
Weston Woods has been using award-winning animators to animate
award-winning books. Caldecott winners like Maurice Sendak's "Where the
Wild Things Are" and Newbury winners like William Steig's "Doctor DeSoto"
come alive here in remarkable fashion. Many of the films were directed in
Prague by legendary American animator Gene Deitch, creator of such
characters as Tom Terrific and Nudnik.
