Angelina Ballerina and a granddaughter
Another hit from Angelina Ballerina and her friends (and all-important dance teacher). My 3 1/2 year old granddaughter loves Angelina Ballerina and watches the movie many, many times.

Angelina Ballerina - Friends Forever
Gave this to my granddaughters for Christmas and they enjoy it while playing with their Angelina Ballerina Dolls. Thanks!

I LOVE THIS DVD!
I really like this DVD. I have it on VHS. In Ballerina Rag Doll, Angelina mistakenly gives away her rag doll that her grampa had given her. In Angelina's Surprise, Priscilla and Penelope Pinkpaws get a new baby brother. Angelina gets very jealous and mistakenly tells a lie. In Artur the Butterfly, Angelina finds an injured butterfly and looks after it. When Arthur feels better, Angelina refuses to let him go. When Angelina searches for Artur, she and Henry get trapped in a big hole. In Alice's Present, Alice gives Angelina a homemade gym bag. When Angelina leaves her gym bag outside her front door, the Pinkpaws twins take the bag, which causes a big fight between Angelina and Alice. Alice vows not to do ballet. Angelina vows not to do gymnastics. When Angelina gets her bag back, she and Alice get back together. I love happy endings. At first, I didn't like it because it has my least favorite episode in it. But now, I like the DVD.

The whole family loves Angelina
Four stories from the PBS television series. In each tale Angelina faces difficult challenges. The stories are:

Ballerina Rag Doll - Angelina faces maturity as she gives up her baby things to help others. But Angelina might not be ready to part with them all. Or is she?

Angelina's Surprise - Angelina is jealous of the attention being given the Twins and their new sibling. Angelina tells a lie that snowballs out of control until she admits her mistake.

Arthur the Butterfly - Angelina finds a beautiful injured butterfly while on a picnic. Angelina has a hard time letting it go once it is healed but learns her lesson when she becomes trapped.

Alice's Present - Alice gives Angelina a new gym bag that through a mix-up winds up donated to charity. Alice thinks Angelina did not like the gift and a friendship might come to an end.

We love the stories, the music and the voice characterizations. A fun video for young girls, and some boys, with lessons for everyone.

Stories Good but Format Annoying
...lack of a menu. There is no way to choose specific episodes-you just have to skip through the chapters and even those do not break at obvious places. My daughter likes to watch DVDs with the captions on (she learned to read at four so I guess that helped) and that option is not available. Might as well buy the video instead--it's a bit cheaper and at least you can look at the counter to determine where the episodes are.

No menu makes this impossible to navigate
While my daughter enjoys watching the episodes, it is frustrating when she wants to see the live action segments at the end. There is no menu in order to skip over the cartoon episodes and go straight to the live action.

Basically, we have to skip each chapter until we get to the last chapter in an episode (the DVD won't let you skip the last chapter), wait for the episode to end, and then do the same process for each of the remaining episodes until you reach the live action.

It seems like the makers of the DVD just recorded the VHS version onto disc and left it at that.
