Babar. Race to the Moon; No Place Like Home

More trouble with Lord Rataxes awaits King Babar in these two adventures in Elephant land: “Race to the Moon” - Babar’s hopes of rebuilding an old theatre are jeopardised when all his subjects get caught up in trying to build a rocket ship to beat Lord Rataxes to the moon. “No Place Like Home” - Babar lets a young circus boy live in the palace. But when the lad wants to return to his circus home, he discovers that it might be too late, because the circus has been captured by Lord Rataxes. Based on the picture books by Jean and Laurent de Brunhoff.
