The Land Before Time XII: The Great Day of the Flyers

Petrie Nika Futterman is having a difficult time preparing for the Day of the Flyers, an important day for all of the flying residents of the Great Valley, when all of the young flyers must participate in a precise flying exhibition to prove that they are ready to fly with the adults. Always a nervous flyer, Petrie has even more trouble flying with his siblings in precise group formations.

At the same time, a strange newcomer Guido, Rob Paulsen, to the Great Valley has Littlefoot and his friends trying to figure out just exactly what he is. Named Guido, a Microraptor, he is the strangest looking creature any of the Great Valley creatures has ever seen, especially since he has never seen another like himself.

Cera Anndi McAfee is having her own troubles, as her grumpy father and his new mate, Tria Camryn Manheim, get ready to welcome a hatchling to the family. The hatchling’s name is Tricia, and Cera begins to slowly bond with her new sister.

All of these issues come together on the night before the Day of the Flyers, when Guido starts to figure out what he is. Guido begins sleep walking and Petrie and his friends follow him, inadvertently leading all of the gang on a perilous adventure into the Mysterious Beyond. In the Mysterious Beyond, Guido wakes up from sleep walking and accidentally wakes up a Spinosaurus which gives chase and tried to eat them. But Petrie, Guido, and the others defeat the Spinosaurus by trapping and wedging it between two rocks and they returned to the Great Valley.

As the Day of the Flyers arrives, Petrie and his siblings begin to participate. Following Guido’s advice to be himself, Petrie’s performs his own unique flying and inspires the other flyers to do the same.

While watching and following the flyers, Tricia falls into a river and was carrying her straight to the waterfall. Guido, Petrie, and Petrie’s siblings rescue her just in time but they accidentally drop her and Cera saves her before she lands in the river again. > “Cera”

The film ends with Cera and her family loving on Tricia while the other dinosaurs watch in awe.
