Helpfully arranged in self-explanatory chapters åÀ including Family Films, Seasonal Movies, Fairytales and Legends, Science Fiction and Comic Book Adaptations, among others åÀ The ParentsåÀ Guide to Kids Movies is the first comprehensive guide to childrenåÀs film. Written with passion and insight, Jo Berry has produced an informative, entertaining and balanced aid for the modern-day parent drowning in a sea of DVD releases.
