Talk:Land of Make Believe (amusement park)

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In your site you mentioned about the moo-moo bird with reference to a particular picture in The Land of Make Believe painting by Jaro Hess and not knowing where that picture comes from. I believe that scene comes from the book The Wonderful Adventures of Nils. I have not read the book but there is a similar picture in the book. Since Hess drew in fairtale character images, his version of the scene or picture would be a more animated one. In Texas, a moo bird would be a cow bird. I searched for the Japanese and the Hawaiian version of a moo-moo bird and came up empty handed. However, after viewing some of the information on the book The Wonderful Adventures of Nils and seeing a picture of a goose with Nils on it, I believe that is the book where that picture in The Land of Make Believe comes from. The information about the Nils book is in your website. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wonderful_Adventures_of_Nils

The opening date listed of 1974 is incorrect. At the park they reference having been in business since the 1950s. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.80.111.221 (talk) 04:29, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I have vague memories of going to the "Land of Make Believe" in NJ (Not the one in upstate NY) in the late 1950s as a small child. Bwmoll3 (talk) 12:33, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Made corrections and added a source from the site which contains news articles stating the park's 50th anniversary from 2004. Tinton5 (talk) 21:28, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
