Amazing film. So light hearted and fantastic acting, with some amazing phrases. Like 'babies, your better off raising tomaters'! Its just full of laughter.

One of my all-time favourite movies to watch when I was little. I've watched it numerous times and love both the movie and book alike. Would recommend to all families.
