Movie ReviewsLoved these books when I was younger - great idea!!!! Ruben Sigala | Las Vegas, NV | 07/27/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I absolutely loved these books when I was a child, and I just watched the DVD with my nephews who were completely absorbed by the interactive adventure. It's a lot of fun to be able to share a memory from my own childhood with my nephews and watch them become as engaged with the choices and outcomes as I used to be. What a great (and long overdue) idea! By design, these DVDs keep children involved for multiple viewings while the additional features provided are also educational. The fact that the makers were able to get William H. Macy and Frankie Muniz to voice the roles is just icing on the cake. On the whole, a fantastic product. Can't wait for the next one to come out!" A great product for kids Jessie | Iowa | 07/27/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I didn't read these books when I was younger, but a good friend recommended the DVD. My nieces loved it! They were so excited that they could actually make the decisions for the characters! They spent the entire time absorbed, laughing over the outcomes and wondering what the alternative options would produce. This DVD naturally lends itself to multiple viewings, and the storylines are clever and fun. Great product!" My son and his friends love this Eric Litwin | Thousand Oaks, CA USA | 07/27/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I grew up reading all the "Choose Your Own Adventure" books - at least the first 30 in the series. I loved these as a child and when I saw they were coming out with a DVD, I had to get it (for my son, not for me...well, for me too). My son loves watching this over and over trying out different paths and even replaying his favorite "stories". As a parent, I like the educational aspect and overall positive tone of the material. The voices are from top Hollywood stars and the animation is high quality (not like some of those mass produced Saturday morning cartoons). On a side note, we also bought the newly re-printed book version of The Abominable Snowman and my son is now getting hooked on the series. Anything that motivates my son to read more gets 5 stars in my book." From Adventure of You series to DVD what a journey. Bobbies.Books | Fort Bragg | 06/24/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I got 2 copies of the movie back in February and my kids just loved it. It's interactive like a video game and encourages you kids to enjoy the Choose Your Own Adventure Series. There were 184 CYOA book released e mail me for a list. Edward Packard started it all with *Sugarcane Island (The Adventure of You Series) published in 1976 by Vermont Crossroads Press. Sundance Publishing also offers a complete educational series that goes along with the DVDs, Computer Program that teaches you to write, books, and Website. As a homeschooler of 1 child and 3 that go to public schools this is a great teaching program. I hope you have as much enjoyment from this as I have.
Have a blessed day, Bobbies.books" |
