The Tigger Movie
Rating: ***

Winnie the Pooh and friends are back, but this time the star of the show is the bouncy, charming Tigger. The striped fellow, who for decades has sung that "the most wonderful thing about tiggers is I'm the only one'', decides that not having another tigger around isn't so wonderful after all.

When he sets off to find his tigger family, his quest leads the cast of characters off on an adventure in the Hundred-Acre Wood. Tigger eventually learns that there are different ways to define the word "family'', and once again Pooh and the gang demonstrate the meaning of friendship and love.

This film will appeal to young and older children alike. Two 10-year-old girls who watched the movie filled with tears in one part because they said Tigger was so sad, but also laughed hard at the humorous moments.
