NP27 REVIEW: Video Librarian 

What kid – when hearing about it for the first time – didn't want to be in a car driving through the famous giant California redwood tree that has a big enough "hole" at its base to even accommodate a Chevy Suburban?  And how many know that the famous tree is not actually part of the park?  The tree, located in an area near the park survived harvesting during logging activities some 100 years ago – passed over precisely because of the hole in its base.  That's just one of the interesting facts in the latest edition from Jim and Kelly Watt's high-def Discoveries...America National Parks series.  ... A study in contrasts and extremes: Here viewers will see black bears sauntering through thick rainforests, along with stark and arid desert landscapes, WWII-era monitoring stations designed to look like farmhouses, and more.  Accompanying the stunning visuals are informative interviews with loyal experts.  Highly recommended.
