Title: "Walt Disney's Legacy Collection: True-Life Adventures, Volumes 1-4"
Studio: Disney
Discs: two in each volume
Price: $32.99 each
In a nutshell: Educational, entertaining and, of course, nostalgic, Disney's "True-Life Adventures" (1948-60) are documentaries that really are timeless, and in this new context they should appeal, as they say, to kids of all ages. "Seal Island," "Beaver Valley" and "The Living Desert," among others, are familiar titles to those who grew up watching them.
