Childhood is a magical time of learning, discovery, and personal growth and the trials and triumphs of growing up spring to life in this Scholastic DVD presentation of six favorite children's stories. "Knuffle Bunny," a story written and narrated by Mo Willems, follows Trixie and her Daddy on a trip to the laundromat where they inadvertently misplace Trixie's favorite bunny. After some panicked babbling on Trixie's part and a little help from Mom, Trixie's bunny is found and Trixie utters her first words. In Cari Best's "Shrinking Violet," the extremely shy Violet is panicking over a role in an upcoming school play, but her teacher cleverly ensures Violet's participation while respecting and easing her fears. "Possum Magic," (0152632247) written and narrated by Mem Fox, tells the magical story of an invisible possum named Hush and his grandmother as they eat their way around Australia in an attempt to make Hush visible and Lois Ehlert's "Planting a Rainbow" celebrates the colorful flowers of the garden. Bonus story "Brave Irene" by William Steig tells the story of a young girl's resolve to make an important journey in spite of a terrible storm and Miriam Cohen's "Will I Have a Friend" details the fears and triumphs of a young child on his first day of school. Each of these six scholastic read-along DVD stories is expertly narrated, features nice musical accompaniment, and preserves the stories' original artwork. (Ages 2 to 7) --Tami Horiuchi

Rating : - Loves her bunny!
Like Trixie, my 3 yr old daughter has a very special bunny. We fell in love with the Knuffle Bunny and Knuffle Bunny Too books right away. Our daughter can really relate to Trixie and now and then even calls her bunny 'knuffle bunny'. As far as the dvd, our daughter loves watching Knuffle Bunny, Planting a Rainbow and Will I Have a Friend?. The other stories don't seem to have her interest, however that is probably just an age or personality thing. I am happy for her to watch books being read to her and word tracking on the screen. Our daughter loves to be read to, but I think she enjoys seeing some familiar books come alive with animation.
