I saw this movie a couple times after reading the book. The characters in the movie look way too young, but they fit the storyline well so all young girls in the audience could relate. Some plots in the movie don't make sense at all, especially when an unlikely figure comes into Kristy Thomas' life. I like the fun the girls have with the day camp they run and how Cokie the girls rival always put on a prank. I also like how this is not only an all girl movie, that the parents of the girls do get involved in their lives, more so of Stacy's and Kristy's families, which I feel brings warmth into a movie like this, and gives any young girl a sense of security to come to their parents when any situation occurs.
Though I must say, this is not a fairy tale movie with all happiness in it. There are problems each of the seven girls are facing, some that each girl in the audience could probably relate to, especially with bullying. This is a movie that all girls could relate to, and I highly recommend for girls between the ages of nine and twelve years old to watch this film. They will realize that no girl is alone when facing their problems.
