Editorial reviews

Mem Fox's animated, dynamic performance of her own classic Australian children's book bristles with energy as she tells the story of Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge, a young volunteer at a retirement home who forms an unlikely bond with the 96-year-old Miss Nancy Alison Delacourt Cooper and accidentally helps her discover memories she'd seemingly lost forever.

Fox's touching, heartfelt tale is a testament the power of memory and the importance of respecting one's elders, and it is as timeless as it is enchanting.

Critic reviews

"[A] fine adaptation of a well-loved story that speaks volumes about friendship, caring, and aging." (Booklist)
