The Little Ponderosa Zoo

My friends children watch this avidly they are aged seven and 10 and they really enjoys the plot and is watching the animals. A positive engaging movie and worth watching with a nice little plot.

Charlie (Kena Holmes) is the only child of small-time zookeepers. As such, she can help with most of the animals but not the truly dangerous ones, like the tigers. But, lately, Dad seems worried over the amount of money coming in and going out. Meanwhile, a devious banker in the city has discovered that there is gold on a property nearby. You guessed it, its on the grounds of the zoo. He calls in his wife's delinquent cousin to plan a sabotage operation, that will make the zoo's property go down in value so HIS BANK can buy it at a bargain. Just at this moment, Charlie finds a nugget of gold in the stream and tells her trusted friend, a longtime zoo employee, about it. Maybe this is just what her parents need to save the zoo! This sweet movie has been crafted by a company intent on making family friendly films. Naturally, some of the adult characters are buffoons and the kids and animals smart. Nevertheless, the sheer quantity of creatures and the lovely settings will please the target audience, as will the zany humor. Family film fans, you will like this one.
