"It was an exciting story. The kids were fun." "The father's invention was interesting. I didn't know it could take six years to invent something." "I liked how they talked: would you like a spot of tea?" "I would love to watch it again."
Captivating story, good material for showing different lifestyles attainable by choice. DVD questions for discussion are a good addition to the movie, help encourage problem-solving. Charming depiction of Victorian England with background info on DVD.
Depicts the struggle a motherless family of five endures to save their inventor father from financial ruin. Disasters occur despite support from outsiders. DVD features include a scene index and information on Victorian England and author Edith Nesbit.
