What Parents Need to Know
About Barbie Presents Thumbelina
Parents need to know that this Barbie vehicle bears virtually no resemblance to the fairy tale by Hans Christian Anderson, aside from the name of the main character. Repeated scenes of spoiled and materialistic kids and clueless parents are intended to set the stage for transformation. Corporate sabotage in the name of saving a patch of forest is depicted repeatedly. Predictable, safe family fare.

- What does this story have in common with the original Thumbelina fairy tale? Which do you like better?

I am outraged!
I am outraged at the makers of this movie. There are blatant sexual innuendos in every scene! This is a horrible movie for any child. I am greatly saddened that my children saw this.
