MASHA AND THE BEAR: FROGBOOK

I was spellbound by the characters in Masha and Bear: Frogbook! I love the energy and excitement of Masha and her new friend Vivi. This episode really made me want to see more of the series.

The story follows Vivi, a young witch, who accidentally turns her grandmother's favorite spell book into a frog which quickly hops away. Vivi and her gigantic, blue Cat chase the frog who is desperately trying to hide in a local pond. Unfortunately Vivi needs to work on her spell casting ability to capture the frog and disenchant it before her grandmother discovers it's missing. Masha follows Bear to the same pond to go fishing. They meet Vivi and Cat and Masha uses her creative problem solving abilities to help Vivi! This short is from the Russian Federation and the dialogue is in English.

This production is top notch. The entire episode is 3D animation and it's superb; the magic scenes are particularly fun and creative. The main characters are truly endearing. I really enjoyed the voice-over performances of Sofia Calasso, as Masha and Camila Zapata as Vivi. The intonation, diction and general excitement they bring to their characters is exceptional. The animated scenery is beautiful and detailed in both the indoor and outdoor scenes. The background music really sets the pace and playfulness of each scene. I haven't seen this series before so I don't know how this episode fits in or about the relationships of the characters. This episode is certainly easy to understand and follows a fun progression. I love the scene where Vivi's spells backfire and she ends up chasing the frog only to find that all the frogs in the pond are suspended. This episode is written by Marina Sycheva and it is really creative and fun. I love how Cat is always protecting Vivi and they meet when Masha is interested in Cat's tail.

The show's message is that reading is fun and can help you find solutions to problem solving. Being open to friendship is also a theme in this story.

I give Masha and Bear: Frogbook 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 2 to 8. By Selene W., KIDS FIRST!

In this episode, an interesting couple appears in the world of Masha and Bear: Vivi the little witch and her huge Cat. The little witch accidentally turned her grandmother's favorite book of spells into a living frog and now this book must be urgently found and disenchanted before the grandmother notices. Masha is rushing to the rescue!
