Such is the plot of the most popular animated film of the 1980s that doesn't involve a [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989 singing crab]]. It was a [[SleeperHit surprise hit]] at the box office in 1986, and it became the highest grossing animated film of all time, much to Disney's sheer horror. It would keep this title until the debut of the ''next'' Creator/DonBluth film, ''WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTime''. The popularity of both these films continued in Bluth's efforts in [[WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH his previous film]] to reinvigorate classical animation into the public consciousness at a time when the industry was in a slump, convincing Disney to step up its game in face of the competition, making this film one of the biggest contributions to UsefulNotes/TheRenaissanceAgeOfAnimation.
