Has anyone seen this movie?? It my kids favorite book and a tradition in my family for my husband to read it to them on Sunday nights. I wondered if it was appropriate for my little kids? Thanks!

Just as angelic as she looks, this girl could easily raise a Village by herself, and all the children would grow up to be President.
Self proclaimed, she would be a webkinz dog. Because, "they're cute, and puppies are too. And they're sweet and they always get along with other puppies."

The resident Labradoodle, Miller got his name because Mom won and got to name the baby! Need something chewed up? He'll take care of it. Especially if it's expensive..
Terrific! I posted this at my site with a link back to yours. We home school and just began a Where the Wild Things Are Unit so this was so timely!
We took our six-year-old to this movie for his birthday, and he and his friends loved it. It’s not super scary, but it’s pretty intense, so I would see it yourself and decide whether you want to take younger children to the movie.
Also, it helped to know that the director was trying to use the movie to show how the world can seem to a child sometimes–unfair and unpredictable. Without knowing that, the movie may seem a bit random. (The kids with me didn’t know that, but they all thought the movie was great anyway. I guess because it’s how they see the world anyway!)
Overall, I thought the movie was very well done, and super cute!
Just saw it tonight for my 11 year old’s birthday. It was a very deep and reflective portrayal of the book, so for a child younger than 8 it might seem slow. I thought it was beautiful to watch and amazing with the puppeteering and cinematography. There were 2 swear words and some intense emotion in a couple parts. I am glad we didn’t have our 4 and 2 year old, simply because I think they would have not been as interested by the story and would have become restless. So without them I was able to really enjoy the movie myself.
