episode 23: The Rescuers

I’m listening now and I wonder whether the “faith is a bluebird line” is borrowing from Dickinson’s poem which opens with “ ‘Hope’ is the thing with feathers . . .”. It may just be coincidence, but the phrasing and concepts are rather similar.

@the_alt @MichialFarmer Amy and I were listening to the Rescuers review. Not sure how many other foster parents you know who listen in, but we appreciated the shout out! I completely forgot how different the tone of Rescuers v. Down Under was. Very striking!

this Master Builder will thwart the Kragle and save the realm, and be the greatest, most interesting, most important person of all times, all this is true, because it rhymes.

On a different note (listening in between various errands): Does the description of the mice as braver than expected and models of small virtues make them the hobbits of the Disney catalogue? Apologies to @MichialFarmer for a Tolkien reference. 😉

My Tolkien loving heart was pleasantly surprised by that change of events—and I was also glad to be reminded that you appreciated Leaf By Niggle.
