The Ruby Princess Runs Away

Rating:
Summary: Worth watching....
Review: I was deeply disappointed in this video especially because all the other reviews were 5 stars. The acting and make-up left alot to be desired. The Ruby Princess sang well, but others in the cast did not. My husband left the room because he found it so nauseating. My 9 year old daughter seemed to enjoyed it, but fast forwarded through most of the musical numbers. She said that the video did not give as much background on the story as she would have liked. The story taught a good lesson and did not contain anything offensive or controversial, but I don't this makes up for the poor quality of the production. In the future we'll stick to the books and let her imagination draw the pictures. Don't waste your money on this one.

Summary: Ruby Princess a smash hit
Review: My daughter and I just viewed the Ruby Princess and she loved it. The songs were nice and easy to sing and she really liked the live actors. We are already sitting through our third viewing of the film and will probably see it many more times. My daughter is anxious to get their next video as soon as it comes out.

Summary: A great book makes a great movie!!
Review: My daughter is a longtime fan of the Jewel Kingdom books and I thought we'd try out the movie version of one of them. She absolutely loves it!! I think it's definitely more for children than for adults as I found it a little tiring to watch over and over again, but if there's a child you know who loves this book series, grab this movie!

Summary: Jewel Kingdom Delight
Review: My daughter loved the video. She has all twelve of the books in the series and couldn't wait to see the movie. The values and lessons in the story are just another way to re-enforce positive behavior. I would buy all of them if there were more!

Summary: Princess video must see
Review: Our four year old daughter loves this story! Although she has viewed it several times she still asks for it first during our designated childrens viewing evenings. This film teaches the importance of individual responsibility. A princess is really more than a crown. Action speaks more than words. A young lady is expected to be more than an ordinary kid. The reward is two fold in that she will be respected by all who know her. We are looking forward to more videos based on the Jewel Kingdom books! We now have ten in our library.

Review: This video is so pure and delighful... my six grandkids watched it 12 times this week-end and cried when they had to go home! My three 2 year old girls all wanted to put on their "ballerina dresses" and dance around the room with the Ruby Princess! It has everything, except violence. What a concept!
