5.0 out of 5 stars BBC at its best, 4 Nov 2004
By 
E. Laws "evangeline2020" (Hull, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Shoebox Zoo - Series 1 [DVD] [2004] (DVD)
This is what the BBC does best, children's adaptations. Like The Narnia Chronicles I watched as a child, this series has had me on the edge of my seat every week. My daughters and I have been eargerly awaiting the next episode on TV and the DVD is an ideal christmas present.
Superbly casted it encapsulates a childs feeling of detachment from society as well as the magic of innocence. On an adult level the humour is subtle and memorable, the voices of the animals brilliantly done and so apt to their characters.
A must see for the whole family.
