I discovered this series when my only daughter was 7 and I was 36. We both watched it for the first time and it was unforgettable. It became a tradition which we did together every five years or so. Now my daughter is a mother of a little girl and we can't wait for my granddaughter to get old enough to watch all together for the first time. This series portrays a young girl who finds herself in an unfortunate life but possesses an unsinkable spirit and an unequaled imagination; both prove to be her life preserver. There aren't too many movies any more in which we can watch with our daughters/granddaughters and create such character- building traditions. I highly recommend this series.
