THUMBELINA (HDNET MOVIES KIDSCENE)

This movie is about a girl the size of a thumb. Thumbelina wants to know if there are other people like her, people that are her small size. Her mom shows her a book about fairies, and she is overjoyed, but her mom is afraid that it will be hard to find any fairies. But surprise, a fairy prince comes to her door and Thumbelina begins her adventure. My favorite scene in this movie is when Thumbelina is sleeping with her head under a bird's wing. I like the music in Thumbelina very much because there are so many great songs. Thumbelina is a musical so be prepared for a load of fun music! Thumbelina is played by the great Jodi Benson, she's best known as Ariel in The Little Mermaid, one of my favorite movies. Benson has such a graceful tone that makes every song a joy to hear. I think Thumbelina is a movie for all ages, except some teens and tweens might get bored with the story line. Also boys who are not into fairies may not enjoy it. I give this movie 4-out-of-5 stars. Review by Makai Weber Colvin, KIDS FIRST! Film Critic, age 10.

No bigger than her mother's thumb, a small, lonely girl longs for companionship. Her wish is granted by the prince of the fairies. However, she must use the power of friendship to save her life once she is kidnapped by a mischievous toad.
