When Zachary Beaver Came to Town Reviews:
Great for Familes & for Teachers
2008-11-26 - Like another reviewer here, I am a teacher who purchased this movie to go along with reading the book "When Zachary Beaver Came to Town".

The film is a great compliment to the book, and a good family movie in it's own right.

There is plenty here to discuss - prejudice, loss, friendship - for either the classroom or a family film night. Keep a little Kleenix handy, though. There are some tear jerking aspects.


SOLID ENTERTAINMENT FOR KIDS AND ADULTS! 3 1/2 STARS!
2008-11-05 - Interesting coming of age film with the story centering around two friends who befriend an obese boy in a makeshift sideshow. The film is a cut above most juvenile fodder with some funny and interesting characters. Amanda Alch is a stand out as a pint sized southern bell! It's clean and short and the story isn't dumb-ed down, so adults can enjoy this film too. I caught this on cable, so I don't know what the DVD quality is.

When Zachary Beaver Came to Town
2008-01-12 - I was looking for a DVD film of the book "When Zachary Beaver Came To Town" to tie into a lesson plan for a literature unit for that novel. The first place I always check is Amazon and low and behold I located the DVD and at a great price!

Great Family Movie
2007-11-23 - Wonderful movie for families. Depicts prejudice in a small town and the lessons learned by a boy and his friends. Very well done. Our family thoroughly enjoyed it!

A Good Family Movie
2007-04-17 - We watched this as a family and we all enjoyed it! Even the youngest granddaughter who is only four was able to stay with it. I loved the dynamics of the of the developing relationships between the boys. How special to see kids showing empathy and being sympathic at such a young age. I especially enjoyed the Baptism scene in the lake and what it represented to Zachary! Overall I thought the whole movie was fun and entertaining for all!
