The movie is a low budget adaptation of the book. It is a very warm and gentle, even old fashioned kind of film. Very safe and you don't have to worry about your kids watching it over and over as it has a very positive message.
Just like in the book, the kids are polite and supportive of each other. They discover that hard work leads to independence and that the most important thing is life is your family.
There are one or two mildly scary moments but for the most part this is a movie even little kids can watch with any worries.
I wish there were more movies like this being made for kids these days.
Also I would recommend reading the book to your kids cause it makes watching the movie even more fun.
