Good animated feature for small children
11 May 2017
This was made in 1967 and therefore seems dated to adults, but small children should love it. It even teaches boys that girls are just as ready for "rough" adventures as boys are. Good ultimately triumphs over evil in the traditional Mother Goose fantasy world that Frenchman Charles Perrault originally created.

Do not look for the racial and ethnic diversity that we see added to later revisions of such traditional European fantasy tales. Mother Goose lived in an all-Caucasian world, but we don't see much racial diversity in any of the ancient Old World cultural traditions in Asia or Africa either.
