About

This was a remarkable film made as part of one of the most inventive series of films made for young learners, the 20-part 'Inventive Child' series, distributed in North America by Encyclopaedia Britannica Films. The film is an animated, non-narrated story about an extremely inventive boy, who develops a phonograph from materials found around the farm, beginning with a platter made from a pottery wheel. When his home phono is completed, the dog barks on the platter scare away a fox that has been harassing the hens. As in the other films in the series, the animation is wonderful, the plot and writing intelligent, and the music, by Adam Markiewicz, is terrific. Made by Film Polski and Telewizja Polska.
