     I suspect that the movie only covers this one book, since it is a
     complete story in itself. I am a bit apprehensive about it, though.
     I also loved the books, and I would hate to see Disney do to them
     what it did to _Sword and the Stone_..  Lloyd Alexander treats his
     characters intelligently (all right I know T. H. White didn't) and I
     hope Disney gives them the same courtesy.

     Nan

     (if they make Orwen, Orddu, and Orgoch into comic characters I will
     KILL!)

   How about what Disney did to The Jungle Book and Winnie-the-Pooh?
Hanging would have been too good.
