Parent Verdict

A lightweight fantasy comedy with mild slapstick and a jealous librarian villain who steals crayon power to bring his fantasy novel creatures to life — including a briefly scary dragon. Some rude humor and pratfalls, nothing more. Fine for ages 5 and up, though older kids may find it thin.
