BIG combines a light-hearted storytelling style with computer animation, stop-motion character animation, and a surround-sound musical score to bring a really big subject down to Earth.
Discover our solar system through a new set of eyes that blends scientific simulations
with kid-friendly characters. Little Star, an average yellow star, wants planets to
