» In the next few weeks we will be trying out In-Text Advertising, a new type of advertising that we think is less intrusive than many other formats. Basically, keywords on our pages that correspond to an advertiser's product or service will be double-underlined in green. More details here.
Animated version of the classic fairy tale about a tiny
girl, who, after many adventures, marries her prince.
SEX/NUDITY 0 - Some teenage kissing.
VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - Some kicking and pushing. A fairy prince is temporarily
frozen to death in a block of ice. A beetle's wings are forcibly removed from his back by
a bully of a frog. Thumbelina is forcibly kidnapped from her home and forced to sing and
dance catchy tunes composed by toads.
MESSAGE - The intended message is that there's a "right-size"
place for everybody, even those who don't seem to fit in the regular world. However,
there's also an unintentional message for girls: just be beautiful, take singing lessons,
do housework and someday your prince will come.
