It's summer on the mainland, and the fairies are busy preparing for the new season. But when Tinker Bell wanders off to look for lost things, she is seen—and caught—by a human girl. The future of fairykind is in jeopardy! Vidia launches a daring rescue to save Tink before the girl's father reveals the existence of the fairies to the rest of the world. Find out what happens in this junior novelization retelling of Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue, featuring eight pages of full-color scenes from Disney’s direct-to-DVD movie!

I believe she's about 12 or 13. I'm not sure how old the boys are, but John's probably in the 8-10 range, and Michael's only 4-6. So if Wendy's 4-6 in Tinker Bell, Then John would be 4 at most. And, since Wendy has the nursery all to herself, I would assume that he is younger than that.

It's cute... I don't know, do you think that'll be her outfit for the fourth film? That's one thing I find really neat about the different seasons, actually, is the alterations made to the characters' outfits, without changing the overall style.

The Tinkerbell movies are the only things keeping Disney Toon Studious alive. They are better than the best direct to video sequel. When I heard they were making the first movie I thought "Yay another movie from the Disney company." That was before I saw the direct-to-video movies than I thought. "This is going to be a pretty bad movie." My first thought was the right one. It is pretty enjoyable.
I couldn't agree more. The Tinker Bell movies are sweet, harmless, but enjoyable, with cute characters, cute music and gorgeous animation. Although the films are specifically aimed for kids under eight, they're still not unsuitable for adults either. The "Tinker Bell" movies is perhaps the smartest choice Disney have done the last three years, not only of profiting, but also artistically.

I definitely agree. But I'm not sure if they're the only thing keeping DisneyToon alive anymore. It was Lasseter's fascination with the project that kept it afloat, but he taught them how to make a movie. So... after this series is over, we may potentially be seeing some more high-quality films from them. (Possibly a different spin-off series for a different character? Well.... come to think of it, I'm not sure if any other character would be as well-suited for that as Tink. So maybe something completely different!)

Thank you sooo much for posting, Old Fish Tale! You know, that may be my new favorite Pixie Preview! It really shows off Sil's grace, and something about the tone in the beginning at least, made me think of that one scene in The Old Mill. In fact, the title, "Sil's Symphony" sounds a little familiar, don't you think? :P

But this definitely shows that their skill in animation improves the more they do! The animation of the water, and of Sil herself, may be some of the best we've seen from them ever. It just keeps getting better!

And, it also shows that they've already started marketing GFR. That's a good thing... maybe it means we'll be seeing some new clips soon! :D

A Vidia preview would be wonderful! I do think we ought to see a bit more of her, especially if she's going to have a change of heart in this film...

I'll liked the new Pixie Preview, too. It was funny, creative and original.

Not as good as Sil's Symphony, but still pretty cute. The animation on Cheese looks even better than before. He is just such an adorable character, he's got such an appealing design!

Stills! Click here and there! I love the first one! I'm glad to see Terrence! And I wonder if Lizzy created that house... "Welcome fairies"... Maybe...
Tinker Bell, the world's favorite fairy, will be spreading her mirth and magic for audiences of all ages, as the worlds of fairies and humans meet for the first time in Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue. An all-new, original full-length CG animated film featuring breathtaking animation, spectacular music and an all-star cast of voice talents debuts September 21st, 2010 on Blu-ray Combo Pack (includes Blu-ray and bonus DVD of the film & movie download).

Before she was ever introduced to Wendy and the Lost Boys, Tinker Bell met Lizzy, a girl with a steadfast belief in fairies. Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue begins in summertime in the beautiful English countryside. An enchanting encounter unfolds when Tinker Bell is discovered by Lizzy, and as their different worlds unite, Tink develops a special bond with the curious girl in need of a friend.

As her fellow fairies launch a daring rescue, Tinker Bell takes a huge risk, putting her own safety and the future of the fairies in jeopardy. This action-packed adventure takes the fairies of Pixie Hollow on a daring flight to London to save Tinker Bell and all of fairy kind.

Produced by DisneyToon Studios, Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue is a captivating and exciting adventure for all the family.

I'm glad Terrence will appear in the movie. But then why doesn't he join the other fairies to rescue Tink? I hope they provide us with a good explanation.

I don't like the animation and the character design of Lizzy's father. His design is very blant and his animation looks too plastic-y and cheap.

That's werid. I kind of figured they be doing all the covers alike, since the first two were very similar. So much for uniformity, hahah... besides that, I like it.
