Parents say that while the animation and adaptation of the beloved book are well-done, the film can be too intense and frightening for younger children, especially those who aren't familiar with the story. Many reviewers noted that it may be suitable for older kids but could trigger anxiety and nightmares in sensitive toddlers due to its suspenseful themes and imagery of predatory animals.
