A few months ago I took a few of my Grands to go see the movie The Star. We had a great time and they loved it, these were little folks, so the fact that they were entertained said something. But not the kind of entertainment like a high action video game. Rather the kind with good animation and a good story. It followed the birth story of Jesus, not one hundred percent true to the bible but rather a story of the biblical account. It was close enough to be good, yet with some great add ins, similar to historical fiction. Really made the story come alive. There were lots of animals with great personalities and a caring story line. I have been patiently waiting for the DVD so we could watch again with the ones who didn’t come along. And guess what? It is now available. I can’t wait to get it. Here is some info, hopefully I can tempt you to get it also, I don’t think you will be disappointed 🙂 . I am also excited about all the bonus stuff on the DVD. This was honestly one of the cutest movies I have seen in a long time.
