A nose spray to cure bedwetting? Never underestimate weird science. Nose sprays, buzzers, fluid intake regulation, a healthy dollop of understanding, these are some of the treatments that parents can use if their child is one of the nearly 5% of all children who wet the bed. Combining live-action (in the form of 11-year-old Josh, who has the aforementioned problem) and animation (the plucky junior wizard Jasper), this short but informative program assures both parents and children that bedwetting is a medical condition which is treatable. Viewers will learn the straight facts (and the myths) as well as be advised to consult their family physicians. A fine handling of an embarrassing topic, this is recommended. Aud: E, I, P. (R. Pitman)
