"Can the perfect pebble help a bashful penguin find his true love? Based on the true-life mating rituals of the Adeli penguins in Antarctica, this charming tale from Don Bluth (An American Tale, The Land Before Time) features the voice talents of Martin Short, James Belushi, Tim Curry and Annie Golden and includes the incomparable songs of Barry Manilow and Bruce Sussman. Hubie (Short) is a hopeless romantic in love with Marina (Golden), the most beautiful penguin in all of Antarctica. When he magically stumbles upon the perfect pebble, he knows he has to find the courage to ask Marina to mate with him for life. But the evil penguin Drake (Curry), who also wants Marina, has other plans, and he throws Hubie into the ocean. Castaway Hubie meets the fearless Rocko (Belushi) - a penguin determined to fly - and together they must get Hubie home before the Full Moon Mating Ceremony begins! "--Container.
