Wild America (553 words)
"Wild America" bills itself as inspired by the true story of the Stouffer brothers, who grew up to film a documentary series of the same name about rare and endangered species.
There are encounters with an alligator and with a wild moose that scoops Marshall up on its antlers, and finally a confrontation with a cave full of hibernating grizzly bears (guarded by rattlesnakes and overseen by bats) that all wake up at the same moment and begin dancing in a circle.
If "Wild America" is barely in touch with reality, it has a slick storybook charm that should appeal to children who like animals and enjoy the great outdoors.
