    ABOUT:

    Cinders & ashes!  Get ready for the big day as the Lion of Sodor visits Thomas and his engine friends in the all-new CG animated Thomas & Friends™: The Lion of Sodor coming to DVD, Digital Download and On Demand December 7, 2010 from Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment. Hop on board as Thomas learns how to be a Really Useful Engine in these four episodes from the all-new CG animated TV series. Host Driver Perkins, who can ONLY be seen on DVD, engages children with interactive dialogue and extra fun!

    Teaching timeless life lessons such as discovery, friendship and cooperation, the Thomas & Friends animated series invites children to enter a world of imagination through the tracks of a train and the words of a story.

    Join Thomas as he roars down the tracks with the most special delivery yet, The Lion of Sodor.  Thomas’ special delivery is not what he thinks it is – a real lion.  When the other trains try to tell him that it’s actually a statue, he is too excited to listen. Join Thomas as he learns the importance of listening to others in this lionhearted collection of tales from the tracks.

    Episodes include:

    • “Lion of Sodor”
    • “Thomas and the Pigs”
    • “Time for a Story”
    • “Hiro Helps Out”

    DVD BONUS FEATURES

    • Party Train Match Game
    • “Determination” Karaoke Song
    • Bonus Episode: Timmy Time™ Sneak Peek- “Timmy’s Plane”

    MY THOUGHTS:

    This is an adorable Thomas DVD. It is about learning to listen, rather than just assuming which is what Thomas does.  My boys are only 2 and 3 years old and of course don’t listen so I am hoping this DVD will kick something into gear for them!  I also love it because it is in the new CGI animation so it is more brightly colored and animated than traditional Thomas.  This DVD has a total of four great episodes and lots of extras, great DVD for the price!

    BUY IT: You can buy “Thomas & Friends: Lion of Sodor” wherever DVDs are sold or check it out on Amazon for $11.49.

    WIN IT: (1) US winner will receive the DVD “Thomas & Friends:  The Lion of Sodor” from HIT Entertainment

      I don’t have a child of my own yet, but Thomas is my nephew’s favorite train! (and was my favorite as a kid too!)
