Pete's Dragon

In 1977, Pete Healy, a five-year-old boy, is on a road trip with his parents when their car flips off the road due to not watching out for the deer. His parents are killed, but Pete survives and is chased into the forest by a pack of wolves. He is rescued by a dragon with green fur, yellow eyes, and huge wings. Pete names the dragon "Elliot" after his favorite book about a puppy of the same name trying to find his family, and takes to him as a father figure. Read more on Wikipedia.
