|PIC1|This autumn, Big Idea introduces an all-new family adventure VeggieTales: The Wonderful Wizard of Ha's, the story of a prodigal son.

Written by VeggieTales creator Phil Vischer, Big Idea presents a classic Veggie-twist on a much-loved classic family film The Wizard of Oz that reminds everyone there's no place like home.

Through creative re-telling of one of the most recognised Bible stories of all time - the story of the prodigal son - Ha's delivers a compelling lesson in understanding forgiveness. The DVD includes a new Silly-Song "Monkey" and a collection of family friendly bonus features, including Mr Lunt singing "Over the Rainbow".

The adventure reaches stores in the US on the 6 and 9 October in Christian and general market stores respectively.

"The biblical story of the prodigal son has a lesson every child needs to hear," states Phil Vischer. "The Wizard of Oz turned out to be the perfect framework to communicate that message in a really entertaining way." Terry Pefanis, Big Idea's COO continues, "Phil has written a funny, clever and moving story that will connect with families everywhere and encourage many with the concept of unconditional love and forgiveness."

The story is about Darby, the son of a Kansas floss farmer, who just wants to have fun. When he learns about the Wonderful Land of Ha's and its mysterious Wizard who makes dreams come true, Darby is determined to go - even against his father's wishes.

Along the way to Ha's, Darby meets a bored scarecrow, a tin man who wants to ride roller coasters, and a lion that craves cotton candy. Each with their own dreams, they join together and set off to see the Wizard.

The enchanting family adventure reminds kids everywhere that there's nothing like forgiveness and there's no place like home.
