"Miss Mallard Rides to the Rescue DVD contains six fun and intriguing mysteries for young minds. For any fans of the Miss Mallard books, these episodes do not disappoint. My son (age 5) and I have enjoyed watching them. I love the music, which reminds me a bit of the theme from the PBS Mystery Theatre. I also enjoy the subtle references to Agatha Christie's Miss Marple, though they might be apparent only to die hard mystery fans who have read the Miss Mallard books and Agatha Christie.

The stories included in this DVD set are Taxi to Intrigue, Cable Car to Catastrophe, Express Train to Trouble, Whistle Stop to Fear, Footbridge to Jitters, and Snowmobile to Panic. For those who have read the stories, know that the DVD versions have been slightly changed to be lengthy enough for about a 23 minute show each. I think they did a great job. Also, all the shows can be watched in either English, French, or Spanish (dubbed, not subtitled). We love Miss Mallard and wish they would make more shows. We look forward to getting the other DVD set called Miss Mallard Meets the Masters of Mischief. We hope you enjoy the famous ducktective as much as we do!"
