Wonderful. Gentle story-telling, delightful music and art. Muted, beautiful animation with acoustic guitar. Methodically slow pace. Rare glimpses of a child alone, engaging in imaginative play, allow children to project their own experiences and stories. |

Most were excited to see small stories from their own lives. "I loved it." "Peter was too big to sit in the chair, and he gave it to the baby." "I have a baby sister now." Some tried to whistle along as Peter struggled to learn how to whistle for his dog. |
