 My Thoughts:

This is the second Penguins of Madagascar films I have reviewed. I am not usually a fan of spin offs of popular animated titles, but there is something about the Penguins of Madagascar episodes that I find appealing, and take time to watch with Savannah.  Out of the 8 cartoons, I have to say my daughter's favorites were  April Fools, Siege the Day and Sting Operation.  I loved Two Feet High and Rising and Otter Gone Wild.  These adventures were short in length, so I was able to break them down and share throughout the week with Savannah after lunch, and they kept her attention.  She loved watching Ducky go through Penguin training.  


And, with Easter around the corner, this new release would make for a great Easter basket gift.  Both you and your child(ren) will go Ducky :-) over this cartoon series.

Disclosure:  I was sent a copy of this DVD from the vendor in order to write up an honest review.  The views above are mine and mine alone.
