The Penniless Princess is a retelling of the classic story The Little Princess. It tells the story of a girl named Sara Crewe who lives with her wonderful, wealthy father. She goes off to boarding school temporarily, but her father pays for her to have the best room in the school and whatever she wants. Then, she reaches an awful fate, and her father and riches are gone. Her faith is then put to the test as she becomes a servant girl.

This movie is adorable. The dialogue is good and the humor is very nice, too. I was impressed. I also liked the retelling of Joseph and when he was sold into slavery by his brothers. It was cute seeing him as a vegetable as well.

The message about self-worth is a good one. You don't have to have lots of money to be seen as a princess in God's eyes! I've just never been the biggest fan of Veggie Tales. I have a great amount of respect for it and love what they've been doing all these years, but I've just never gotten into it.

That doesn't mean that if you, the reader, have kids that they won't like it. I think that a lot of kids will. It tells some great stories, including a Bible lesson and a message about loving yourself in it. I encourage all parents to try this one out with their young daughter's. They may even like the Young Frankenstein reference if they catch it!
