Video Description

From KIDS FIRST!: Abby makes a classic story come to Sesame Street life when she becomes the main character in a take on the famous “Alice in Wonderland” story. Join Abby as she dreams about another world where she learns how to make rhymes in order to grow and shrink; joins the “Counterpillar” and Rosita as she learns about perspective; meets the Cheshire Cookie Cat and has tea (literally the letter “T” with the mad hatter) while she searches for her missing wand that Mr. Rabbit accidentally took. The DVD is full of great songs that will have little ones singing along. The visuals are stunning with rich details and seamless puppetry. The DVD encourages children to control their imaginations and dreams if they get bad, reminding them that they have control over their own stories. It also emphasizes being happy with whatever stage of life you are in. “Abby in Wonderland” is engaging and entertaining for both adults and children. It has a great use of humor, appropriate for its audience. KIDS FIRST! Child Juror Comments: I liked it. It had lots of colors. There were weird things a counting caterpillar a hatter who was mad and sad. It was funny. He drank the letter “T.” It was cool that Abby could change size with rhyming. I can rhyme, too. The kids liked the songs and tried to sing along. I liked seeing my Sesame Street friends. They were part of the story, but they were different people. My favorite part was the cat cookie eater.

This review is from: Sesame Street: Abby in Wonderland (DVD)

This is the first time I've seen the Abby character in the Sesame Street programs and she sure is cute! She has a darling voice which the little ones seem to find fascinating. Sesame Street always does a great job with their DVD's and they're a favorite here. It's nice that this one is a little longer at 40 minutes than the typical 30 minutes which seems to fly by.

The voices are cute, the movie is colorful with lots of activity and the story which is a take off on Alice in Wonderland with Abby taking the part of Alice is a good one. The Sesame Street cast takes the other parts, like the Cheshire Cookie Cat or Bert and Ernie as Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee.

About the only thing I would change and the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it isn't a "Fast Play" or auto start DVD. You have to wait for the menu to come up and click on play. It's nice to have movies which start over on their own like the Sesame Street Sleepytime Songs and Stories. But all in all, I'd say this is a good addition to the collection.

Natalie loves Abby. Natalie goes non-stop. Abby slows her down for a while so Granny can catch her breath. Thank God for Abby!

My 2 year old daughter loves Abby Cadabby and asks for this movie constantly. She laughs hysterically at Abby's attempts at magic and the word "poof". Abby in Wonderland is a big hit in our household!
