Add another tally mark

+ Like so many of you...

I just discovered this movie tonight, when I got so frustrated after years and years of thinking that I had made up and just dreamed it that I turned to the internet.

Great movie for kids, ages 10-15. They'll want to read it!

This movie is great! I read the book when I was in seventh grade called "Good Old Boy and the Witch of Yazoo" and this is a great adaptation. All kids will enjoy it, boys and girls.

The main character, Arlo, is a cute science geek who tends to take frogs to strange places, like on dates. Fortunately, his newest acquisition happens to ...

Thomson Productions, 2003

A wonderful work

The movie ...
