Review: great story - My grandchildren loved Arnie, they had me make an arnie the doughnut stuffy with the sprinkles to look just like Arnie. When I mailed it to my grandson he said he loved it. we read the story so many times while I was visiting them. The movie is just like the book. We have enjoyed it.

Excellent story made into an engaging movie!
This movie kept the majority of the first-and-second grade classes engrossed for its length of 20-25 minutes (I cannot recall the exact running time!). It is accompanied by a few other picture book movie versions that I have not yet shown, but are based on good books.

great story
My grandchildren loved Arnie, they had me make an arnie the doughnut stuffy with the sprinkles to look just like Arnie. When I mailed it to my grandson he said he loved it. we read the story so many times while I was visiting them. The movie is just like the book. We have enjoyed it.

So funny and original
This video, which brings to life the book of the same name, is so funny and original. Adults will love it nearly as much as the kids do. I have never even watched the other stories on the DVD (sorry, authors), but Arnie alone makes it totally worthwhile. This animated picture book is targeted toward kids aged 4-8, but will appeal to a wider audience. Don't hesitate to buy this one (assuming the price is not inflated).

Arnie is the best!
This video is a perfect compliment to the book. I read the book to my 4th grade students, then we act out the reader's theater (in doughnut costumes we design and make), and we put on a show for parents. Then as a culminating activity, we eat doughnuts and watch this video. It is perfect! My students even enjoyed the 3 other short videos on the DVD.

It is ok
Not real in to this book. There is a lot of art in it which tends to be hard to read. I would think a child would have a hard time reading it because words are everywhere. Just not much to say about it except I don't like it.

Great stories - well told. Particularly love Roberto the Insect Architect - inspiring for kids who want to follow a dream.
