Not the greatest movie, but well worth watching with the children. The kids really enjoyed it, so I would suggest going into this one looking for a decent children's movie. If you expect more for the adults, you will be sorely disappointed. And yes, the accent was horrible.

Clearly a made-for-TV Star Wars film is not what everyone wants to see, but when I was a kid, this movie was good fun.

I picked up the DVD and showed it to my children. If not taken too seriously the movie is goofy fun.

Pretty funny, in the vein of GotG

Marvel totally screws up the mythology here - Hel (Hela) and Fenrir are two of Loki's monster children.
This one was so good I saw it in theaters 3 times. Sorry not sorry.

Lovely illustrations
Catchy song
Teaches ALL children how to share
There is music supplied for the tune of the song, but if you can't read music, you're going to find it difficult!! (0 more)
A lovely little book which not only gives the autistic child advice on how to wait their turn, but also explains to the non-autistic child that everyone is different and there are some children who need help at learning how to share. The illustrations are bold and colourful, and I'm sure that the children in my setting would be just as keen to name the animals as to listen to the story. The song is simple and catchy, and I know that after a few times of reading it together, we would have children singing along.

In the past, we have used an egg timer to illustrate to children how long they can play with a toy before they should pass it along (for those who do not understand the "when you've finished, could you please give it to X"). I could see that for some of those children that this could be a possible tool as well. It's always good to add another string to your, and their, bow!!

I received this book free for an unbiased review through NetGalley and publisher.

Fast Freddy by Lee Ann Mancini The story behind this book is about being special in your own way. It also focuses on making new friends and learning to help with fitting in. The audience is for children and parents that have small children. There is a meaning behind the plot that teach children that it okay to be different.Your children will learn that being different is not all bad. Your children will learn how special they are. This is a great book to have it as a conversation starter. This also a good book for beginner readers. Children can learn that about being unique can be a blessing. The art and font were helpful. It was also inspiring a bit.I thought the pictures were well done. I could see the what the book was about with pictures. The words are big enough for children that are just started to read. Images were colorful. Fast Freddy is an easy read. I recommend this book for young readers. Parents can read this book as well to their children. I also like the way the author has put it together where you will learn about friendships as well. It is a fun and sweet book to read.
