Editorial Reviews

Felicity Merriman and Elizabeth Cole are best friends growing up in colonial Virginia. With their families on opposite sides of the American Revolution, can they manage to stay loyal to one another? Growing up during World War Two, Molly experiences many changes. Her dad is overseas caring for wounded soldiers; her mom takes a job at the local aircraft assembly plant; and Emily, an English girl, comes to stay with Molly's family to escape the bombing in London. Through it all, Molly rallies hope for her family and friends and learns the importance of pulling together-just as her country must do to win the war. Samantha's turn-of-the-last-century life changes the day she meets Nellie O'Malley. Though they come from different worlds, the two soon become the best of friends. Through happiness and sorrow, adventure and danger, they grow close enough to be sisters. But nothing could prepare them for the life-altering surprises and lessons that await them this special holiday season.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic set of movies February 23, 2008

By David Holubetz

Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase

All three of these movies are fantastic, and far exceeded my expectations. I love them as much as the kids, as they are not dumbed down or silly. The cinematography is excellent, production values are high, acting is solid. The period sets and costumes are well done. And the stories are great - realistic plots and drama. In short, these films represent what is possible in family / kids movies, and what I would like to see more of as an alternative and antidote to the usual Hollywood blockbuster spectacles. Highly recommended, especially to independent and active girls who need strong role models, but also to intelligent boys and adults who like good stories. Great value for three discs.
