This review is from: Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas/The Christmas Toy (DVD)

Emmet Otter is a warm story with just a hint of humor, and of course it features Henson's usual high-quality puppetry. My three- and five-year-olds walk around singing "Aint No Hole in the Washtub," and I like "When the River Meets the Sea." The outtakes, too, on this DVD are great.

This was a childhood favorite of mine, I remember watching this movie and thinking how real the movie looked to me. I wanted my children to watch this in hopes they love it just as much as I did growing up. The shipping was fast and it was worth the money movies like this are hard to find.
