2 stars for this adaptation of a book I loved as a child--and even now as a parent reading to my children. There is just no magic here. A movie so obsessed with being cool, that it neglected to tell a story.

Yet, at times it suffered from the forced sentimentality of a greeting card commercial. I guess I am just not cool enough to get the irony.
