    Hide 'n' Seek

    This film is about a little girl who has to go and live with her Grandad in the mountains. Didn't see this one, but my 12yr old daughter did and loved it. The acting was good and the story was good too. Def. a kids movie.

    lovely reminiscent tale

    A wonderful trip down memory lane, this was one of my favourite books as a child and I remember how emotional I felt watching it on TV for the first time and my daughter felt the same some 10(ish!} years later. A great story with very strong morals, obviously dated,and basic compared with children's films today..but we were all mesmerised !
