Back-to-school stories
2001
DVD
Chrysanthemum: A little mouse thinks her name is absolutely perfect until she starts school and all the kids make fun of her name--except for Mrs. Twinkle, the music teacher, who thinks Chrysanthemum's name is absolutely perfect too. Monty: Monty, a dependable and considerate alligator taxi for three children who need to get to school everyday, decides that he needs a vacation when their back-seat driving proves more than he can handle. The day Jimmy's boa ate the wash: Jimmy brings along his pet boa constrictor on a class trip to the farm.
