Pure, lovely storeytelling
The Rabbit Ears pieces were/are unbeatable efforts to use audio/video media to tell tales that are complex and simple at the same time. When our daughter was young these were hard to find, but several of them have entered into her life as important touchstones. And, if it matters, the adults still love them: between the music, the interpreters, & the artists it's difficult to imagine a better way to represent these tales in contemporary media. Not every one is perfect ... but each is far better than anything else you'll see.

captivating for kids
