Summary: Annabelle's Wish
Review: I have owned this movie for five years. I have watched it with my Grandchildren many times. I am purchasing more so they can all have a copy to take it home with them. The music is beautiful and the story is very tender and new. We all love it.

It is a wonderful movie for all ages.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a winner
Review: I rented this movie for my 5 year old and 2 year old and both
fell in love with it. They watched it at least twice a day.
The story has gentle, delightful characters, and the message
is not just one for Christmas but for any time of year - that
gifts of love from the heart are those that mean most. This is
one to own.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If You Believe in Yourself
Review: The story starts off on Christmas Eve where the legend began. Santa Claus gives the animals of the barn voices for twenty four hours. Annabelle arrives this first night as shown on the video. Santa leaves a note for Billy that the calf is his Christmas present.

Billy has been unable to talk since the fire in the barn that left him in the care of his grandfather. His Aunt is the sister to his father, from what I can tell. It is love at first sight for Annabelle and Billy and off they go to play in the snow. Agnes brings Charles, the grandfather imported bon bon's from Paris for his present. Agnes and Charles go into the barn to see what Billy got from Santa Claus.

The funniest part of the movie is when Agnes steps in "kaka" and the way she says it is hysterical. They proceed back to the house and Billy is left alone in the barn. Well this is the first time Billy has wanted to stay in the barn since the tragic fire. His Aunt Agnes prefers to call him William and the clothes she wears are bright orange and go with her hair.

Annabelle makes the mistake of talking in front of Billy and the animals decide it is okay for only Billy to know about the secret that comes once a year from Santa Claus. Annabelle decides she wants to be a reindeer and be with Santa Claus. She tells Billy her dream.

There is a song by Randy Travis about changing seasons and making friends. Tears come to my eyes everytime I see the scenes with the song that show Billy, Annabelle and Emily, while Randy sings about seasons come and seasons go.

There are many lessons in this fine movie. The two neighbor boys apologize for making up stories. Gus meets Agnes and they seem made for each other. Grandpa gets his music box back, the animals get their yearly treat.

The animation and music are such added bonuses as well as the voices that I do not get to hear on sitcoms anymore. The most important thing to remember is to keep this movie in an active collection and not to be utilized only for the holiday season.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Heartwarming Story
Review: This has become my all time favorite Christmas video.

Annabelle is a calf that is born on Christmas Eve and decides that she wants to be one of Santa's reindeer. But Annabelle's love for her owner Billy, a little boy who can't speak is more important to her than flying with Santa Claus.

This is a wonderful Christmas movie about love and giving, and is a must have.

Summary: Annabelle's Wish Is A Classic In Our Home
Review: This is just the best "cartoon" Christmas movie ever. And what a great message it gives us through Annabelle the cow. Annabelle teaches us by example that it is better to give than to receive. Her best friend is a little boy who is now mute because of his fear in a barn fire some time in the past. The boy has few friends, but the animals and a little girl who befriend him are true-blue. The boy is given his voice in the end from Santa because Annabelle gave up her wish to fly like the reindeer. It really is touching. You've got to get this one for the kids (and adults who are soft at heart).

Summary: This one should be in everyones Christmas Collection!
Review: This is such a touching story. Anyone of any age will enjoy this story from start to finish. Annabelle, Billy, Grampa and Emily are wonderful characters that teach what friendship and giving are all about. We're buying this for several people on our shopping list this year!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the warmest Christmas stories ever told
Review: This was a fabulous little movie. My wife and I bought it to watch while we baby sat for a friend's child and were astounded at how much we loved it ourselves. By the end my wife was bawling her eyes out (which she loves to do) and even I was affected by certains scenes. A truely warm and touching story with a great message and meaning. I couldn't recommend it more.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than "It's a Wonderful Life!"
Review: Truly the best Christmas story ever told! I'm a 32 year old father of 3 and I cry ever time I watch it. Up to this point I have enjoyed a large number of the standard Christmas favorites (Rudolph, Frosty, Grinch etc.) with my children, and nothing comes close to this in offering the real feeling of Christmas. I dare anyone to watch this animated classic and not feel wholesome and refreshed when it is through. This is my new all time favoite Christmas video.
