One day, Prince John picks up unfair tax from poor people. Robin Hood decided to call back King Richard with Little John and Friar Tuck etc... They are Robin Hood’s fellow. People suffered for despotism because they are taxed heavily from Prince John. He takes advantage of King Richard's absence to have everything his way. Robin was a master of the bows. Finally, Robin and his fellows have it out of Prince John, and Robin get married to Marian.

It is easier to watch and understand than original version, so children can understand and enjoy it. It is good for children education. Roughly speaking, main person of Robin Hood is replaced fox in this movie. Other people are replaced many animals too, for example, Little John of Robin Hood's best partner is bear, Maid Marian of heroine is vixen and Prince John of bad prince is lion. It is fantasy, but they are cute. Skippy who longs to be like a Robin Hood is popular character. He is rabbit in this movie. It is very cute because it is small and his voice is very cute too.
