Great fun educational tool for kids!, 19 June 2001

Author: karenkyla3 from Chattanooga, TN

My parents taped this off the television for me as a child and since then the movie's gotten more than its share of use. The stories are imaginative and well-selected, from a fairy-tale to a humorous horror spoof, to a sort of Beverly Cleary type book. The main character, PJ, is stuck in the library overnight and each of the characters invite her into their book while she's waiting. Through each book she finds a tool to get out of the library whether it's to use her imagination, creativity, or master her fear. I'm guessing this is probably out of print by now, though I bet you could find it in some elementary school film rooms hidden away somewhere near "The Electric Grandmother". If you do find it you'll be glad you did.
