3.0 out of 5 stars A good resource for parents, January 6, 2006

This review is from: New York Times Essential Library: Children's Movies: A Critic's Guide to the Best Films Available on Video and DVD (Paperback)
I picked up a copy of this at my local library this summer and have checked it out and renewed it several times. Our library has a very good movie section and I can easily find the titles included here. My children and I have enjoyed viewing many movies that never would have occurred to me to select. Each summer I plan to go farther and farther into the book, although I doubt we will ever see all 100!

The author does a good job of explaining why the movie was chosen and gives a lot of interesting background information. Sometimes the description for a particular movie might run two pages or more. My only suggestion would be to categorize the movies by genre. It is organized alphabetically, which is not the way the movies are organized in our library. There is also an appendix with an additional 100 (I think) movies to consider.
