My daughter and her class watch this film at school during wet breaks and she was desperate to have it at home and watch it all the way through. As a parent always on the look out for an alternative to Disney for my kids and a lover of all things German, I am delighted with this film. The characters of Laura and Tommy have depth and Laura is just naughty enough to be adventurous!I love that she is not at all princessy and is into space and flying. There is lots of great stuff to get kids thinking in this film and some issues of moving home, being kind and sticking together are tackled in a non patronising way. Highly recommended.
