Gator Girls

In this low-budget venture into Weston Woods and Live Oak Media territory, a mostly iconographic children's story is read to the camera by a seated actress, while filmed illustrations from the book and highlighted text passages are interspersed throughout onscreen. The story is about best friends Allie and Amy, two alligators who do everything together, but whose summer vacation is potentially ruined when the parents decide to send Allie away to Camp Wogga-Bog. Although the story is often charming, this would have made a better book /cassette or CD package, rather than a video. Also available in a Spanish version, Gator Girls is followed by a second video in the series, Rockin' Reptiles. Aud: E, P. (R. Ray)
