The Woman
very cute. i am tempted to read the book because things got a little involved and complicated for a feature length kids movie. there was a lot of things going on, but the narration was written very well. i could tell there is a lot more character development just under the surface, which i hope is more lengthy in the book. the gravy baby liked it and it kept us entertained for a gloomy morning. i would recommend to parents of toddlers. i also appreciate the town's obsession for soup.
