Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Great for anyone who loves a world with magic in it and animal lovers. Its magic has rules, and the story plays by them. Liked The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse? This is a good next one. An animal steals a fair few scenes.
- The mood
- Feel-good.
- The pace
- Bright and bouncy, at 23 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
