With each progressive story, the animation for the series became more complex and interesting.  This one opens with a shot of the cottage with animated birds flying through the foreground.  This is a delightful adaptation of the children's story that eliminates the wicked step-mother.  The witch is a genuinely frightening creation for the series.
