Watch Kids' Reviews of
FACE, THE

Funny, sad and scary. "We liked that the face could see things." "This is a good teaching story. It shows the benefits of being honest." "I liked the fish and the face and how the old man taught the kids to be honest and truthful."

Led to intense and productive discussion about honesty. Kept children's attention. An example of storytelling invitingly translated to video. "I enjoyed the story myself, but watching with children was even more enjoyable." Nicely-paced.

Live-action retelling of a traditional Zen Buddhist story about a young boy, a dying storyteller and the boy's desire to have the old man's magical storymask. The new owner must pass a test of integrity, to grow a plant from a magic seed.
