    Toys ‘R’ Us has announced plans to build the world’s largest toy store, a 101,000-square-foot emporium with a life-size dollhouse and a 60-foot-tall Ferris wheel in Times Square.

    The three-story glass-enclosed store, which would become the company’s flagship, is scheduled to open next summer, said John Eyler, the company’s chief executive officer.

    “We expect it to draw over 20 million visitors a year — that’s two and a half times more people than visit the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island combined,” Eyler said Tuesday.

    The store would join a host of family-oriented theme restaurants and corporate stores that have opened in Times Square in recent years. Its neighbors would include the WWF Store, the ESPNZone restaurant and the Disney Store.

    What is the worlds' largest herb?

    Where did the Worlds largest McDonalds open in 1990?

    I'm looking for the name of a TV mini series movie/show. We had rented them from the video store. It's about a boy who is traveling to different worlds looking for pieces of a machine to get him back home (I think.) He is gathering something along his way. He travels to different worlds with a "professor" and maybe another person. Along the way he visits 5-8 different worlds (each was a different movie.) They were all entitled "Somebody and the Land of ???" One world had to do with giant eggs, one world a town of toys, and the end was a land something like a fantasy "Camelot." My children watched these movies anywhere from 1988 - 1993. I'm hoping someone can help me end my frazzled search.
