Description

With Shrek the 3rd coming out in 2007 and the fourth Shrek feature film for 2009, 2008 is the year Dreamworks is slated to release a direct-to-DVD feature showcasing the breakout CGI star, Puss in Boots. And we'll be primed for any non-tie-in tie-in opportunities. Poor Puss. His lazy life at the mill has changed overnight. The miller's son, Tom, is ready to abandon Puss in the woods. But Puss has a few ideas about his and Tom's fate. He slips on a pair of boots, hoists a sack over his shoulder, and sets off to find the creature comforts he knows they deserve. This simple retelling of the classic fairy tale is purrfect for newly independent readers.
