I'm very pleased with the way my children were immediately captivated by the stories of this DVD. And bring me beautiful memories too! These stories are a truly treasure. Kids learn and have fun with this DVD, and them watch it once and again. So it's good that they are watching something that it's not violent and say something about who we are. I highly recommend it!
