REVIEWS

An 8-year old sat through your entire DVD and had the occasional observation:

Is that the Bronx?

Didn’t we go to that science museum?

I learned that from the Indians!

Is he ok!?

Is this real or fake?

It’s too LOUD!

Weird! My friend spells his name A-l-a-n, not A-l-l-e-n.

And… how much longer is this?

Overall judgement: “It was good.”
