Big H and little h are in a blue background. The hen's name reveals to be Harriet in the living books version. The backgroud has been changed a bit with the white on top and blue in the middle and white again at the bottom. The horses backside and legs were drawn and painted in the scene due to being cut from the page. The hen is standing on the white floor in the video and Icabod and Izzy are standing on the white floor in the video but, look at Icabod's left hand and arm.

The tea kettle the leg of a man was kicking, is in mid air and face up vertical in the video but horizontal in the book. then is the video the kettle flies up out the scenery. The line is more thicker on the kite's tail in the video but in the book the tail was thin. Due to half of the king's body being cut from the page the editors painted and drew the rest of it on the video, his hand apears to be colored different and longer in the video than how it used to look in the book his back side and the back of his crown was also painted and drawn in but the big white dots on it were colored black.

  • Big "M" and Little "m" appear together in a blue background from page 30. on page 31 in the video the second mouse has been copied on the scenery to replace the mouse that was directing the other 5 mouses who also had its eyes open in the book. Reason why, because the editors didnt feel like doing much of filling in the rest of the mouses's body. The fourth mouse was copied to replace the fifth mouse that was in the book where his face was only seen and not the body, and the normal version of them can be seen in the powerpoint version.
