I love the animation of this Brazilian film and I love Jose's compassion. The idea of bringing a cloud indoors is completely unrealistic and might be confusing to some kids, unless they can understand that it is entirely make believe. My favorite part is when Jose makes vegetable soup for Little Cloud to help her get over her cold. We see him chop up vegetables and carefully construct a delicious and nourishing meal for his new friend. When Little Cloud recovers and is led outside, we see the bond that she and Jose have made - a true friendship that will last a lifetime.
The message of this film is about friendship and caring for others, even in make believe situations.
I give The Little Cloud 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 2 to 5, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
