A young lad named “Scrappy” is determined not to get out of his bed, despite being pestered by his mum to get up and go to school. Staying snug under his blanket, a distinctly autumnal wind blows some leaves through the open window and those leaves turn into the ones on his calendar and an array of characters from holidays ranging from Easter to Christmas and Thanksgiving arrive just in time for “Father Time” to take the young lad on a celebratory tour of eggs, turkeys, carols and jollity. When he awakens, though, is he ever going to get out of bed again? Though it might have been the quality of the copy I saw, the animation is a little too subdued but it doesn’t hang about and for the most part is simply a joyous exercise that sees the young lad having the kind of unconditional fun that we all wish were having.
