Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say Not yet rated
Kids say (1 ):

This poignant series shows the deep connections some people have with their animals, and how these connections impact their lives and the lives of those around them. It also demonstrates how animals can play a direct and powerful role in human healing.

Some of the stories featured here, especially those dealing with the loss of loved ones on September 11 and during the war in Iraq, are very emotional. The images and drawn-out descriptions of these traumatic experiences can make it difficult to watch. But if you can move beyond this, what you will find are positive messages about animals, recovery, and healing.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
