Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

invisibleunicornninja I wasn't a huge fan of this when I was in the target audience. I thought it was mildly funny but ultimately annoying. I only watched it if there was nothing else to watch and avoided watching it. Its stupid and the characters are annoying. The animation isn't very good and neither is the voice acting from what I can remember. Adults might like it (I say this reading other reviews), but most kids won't.

elle ko they make kids shows.why are ducks always the loud-mouthed firecracker who can never do anything right? Disney and warner brothers cartoons. the stereotypes are consistent in this show. in this case, DUCK also has a southern twang.it accomplishes its intention to teach phonics and spelling conventions, but it is of note that requiring animation to hold someone's attention to a story means it discourages reading. fortunately, the jokes are not funny, there is almost no story, and the characters are tedious, so there will be no emotional attachment.the animations are relatively well-done, but it seems that the show was conceived of by graphic designers segueing into character design. creative typography is a very appealing trick for graphic designers. on this show, since the character design is not especially inspired/ iconic, i can assume that this is a portfolio piece.overall, while i can appreciate having children learn spelling with ease, i don't know if they should be exposed to mind numbing story lines and DUCK.

snowy021486 I turn Word World on for my three year old son every morning and he loves watching his "friends" Frog, Pig, Duck, Ant, Sheep, Dog, Bear and the rest of the gang make words from letters and make a new word, for example: P-I-E is Pie or B-A-L-L is Ball . He loves the characters for they are fun, colorful and relay on one another for help and teaches about friendship. They teach us not to judge a person by the way they look or for what there name is but to judge them for who they are on the inside. It shows that one word can be made into a different word with the same letters like T-O-P top can be P-O-T pot, or words rhyme with other words like T-I-E tie rhymes with P-I-E pie. At the end of the show they have a catchy song as they build the last word and then after the word is finished. This show has helped him to pick up reading and spelling and he doesn't care cause it such a fun show to watch with him. Its the perfect for children and parents to sit down together and interact with by saying the letters, or allow the child to name the letters they see, and words they spell on the show. If your looking to start your child in spelling and reading this is one you should allow them watch.

paintbrush_2003 Wow. I caught this show by chance one day and was so impressed I had to look it up to watch it again. What a wonderful and fun way to teach spelling! In this computed-animated show, all of the animal friends, main scenery, and "props" are made out of the letters of their word. You have to see it to truly appreciate it. There is a dog made out of the letters d-o-g, a house formed from the letters for house, etc. Heck, during a camping episode if you look closely you will see that the flames of the fire are made out of f-i-r-e. The adventures of these animal friends center around building items from the letters that form their word. For example, when the pig is "baking" a birthday cake, he grabs the letters c, a, k and e then when he puts them together, the word animates to form a cake (with frosting!) out of the letters. In another episode, the frog and dog are building a tent, and the tent won't go up until, after several tries, they finally sound out the word and put the letters in the correct order. The animated adventures are split into roughly 10 minute segments, perfect for the very young age group that is obviously targeted.If the quality of the show stays the same as the few episodes I've seen, I'd buy this series on DVD in a second.
