If you are wanting to have the book on screen, this is not the book. It, is however, profound and beautiful. My child is not a child any longer but I would likely not take him to it if he were a little one. At the showing I attended, teens enjoyed it greatly. I think there are elements that are too scary and above what little ones who love the book would understand. So, go yourself, take your teens, where pajamas and a crown, but leave you little ones with a babysitter and read them the book when you get home.
