Oliver Twist (Wishbone Classics)
Phooey avatar reviewed on


"Meet Oliver Twist, a poor orphan (played by Wishbone the dog) hoping for a better life. His days in the workhouse are nothing but hard work, little food, and no fun. When he is only nine, he is falsely accused of fighting and he runs away to London.

In the backstreets of London's slums, Oliver meets crafty Fagin and his gang of young thieves. Will they lead honest Oliver to a life of crime?

Beaten, shot, and left for dead, Oliver is found by wealthy patrons who help him search for his parents. But can Oliver ever escape the clutches of wicked Fagin, who knows his true identity?"
