The Littlest Horse Thieves

An endearing tale set in the early days of the 20th century, this inspirational story centers on a coal mine in Yorkshire, England and the "pit ponies" employed to pull the coal bins out of the deep, dark pits. When the owner decides to destroy the ponies and replace them with steam engines, three children hatch an ingenious plan to rescue the animals. After they're caught "horsenapping," all looks lost when the mine explodes, trapping the miners below, and only the ponies can save them. Will the town decide to save the ponies? Rich in history and heart, THE LITTLEST HORSE THIEVES is a must-have addition to your Disney DVD library.
