We own all of the Strawberry Shortcake DVDs, and this is one my girls (7 & 5) watch over and over. My 5-year-old is a "horse girl, and she especially likes the story being told from Honey Pie's prespective. Good lesson that we all need friends like us as well as friends not so much like us. The second episode didn't bother my girls - they viewed it as a mystery. In the end, the raven is so moved by the friendship between the girls and Honey Pie that he helps Strawberry Shortcake.

Strawberry Shortcake was my Favorite thing when I was little. So, naturally, I started looking for some of the old movies for my little girl. I really don't like the new look of Strawberry Shortcake and her friends, but bought this DVD for my daughter anyway. I love the smell of the DVD case, it smells just like my SSC doll that blows kisses that I got when I was 5. But the stories are really stupid, and the songs are painfully done. I don't know why they had to dumb it down so much. I personally miss the cuteness of the classic, as well as Sour Grapes and the Purple Pie Man. The villain in this is just rediculous. My daughter does like the first story, but won't watch the second one,(She's 3) the bad guy really bugs her. So, I am back to searching for the classics. I wish they would just put the old ones on DVD.

Strawbery Shortcake movies are one of the best selections you can get for your kids. Your children will learn things that will help them deal with everyday issues. I like the cartoon because you can understand all of it. It's not like some cartoons today that the parents have to wonder what it is teaching. The Strawberry Shortcake cartoons are great.

There is no reason for the songs to be SO painful to listen to. The story is sweet, there is a bad guy but he is not dreadful. My daughter and niece love this one, especially the ponies. The girls don't seem to notice how bad the songsa are so it is only grating on my nerves. Certainly not a timeless treasure but cute and fun nonetheless and harmless in spite of the BAD GUY

My daughters 8 and 4 love horses. So naturaly they love this DVD, however they hate the "bad guy" in it. All the Strawberry Shortcake DVDs we own are very happy so I thought this one would be like the others. They love the 1st episode on this DVD, but not so much the 2nd. Too bad the 2nd one has to be about a greedy guy who kidnaps Strawberry's horse!
