Believing in oneself can be difficult, even with the support of friends. The formerly wingless fairy Elina has saved Fairytopia more than once, proving herself against Fungus Maximus and turning the evil Laverna into a frog in Barbie Fairytopia and Barbie Fairytopia--Mermaidia, but she still questions her own abilities when Guardian Azura selects her to become her apprentice and learn the all-important flight of spring--a ritual which ensures another year of vitality in Fairytopia. The taunts and snobby attitudes of her fellow apprentices serve to further undercut Elina's self-esteem, but she vows to do her best to master the flight of spring and soon proves worthy of her appointment. When the trickery of Laverna threatens to stop the flight of spring and destroy Fairytopia forever, it falls to the new apprentices to save Fairytopia. Of course, Elina will play a pivotal role in the group's eventual success or failure. Prepubescent attitudes and shallowness reign among most of the apprentices, but most eventually see the error of their ways and the clear message is the importance of believing in oneself. (Ages 3 to 9) --Tami Horiuchi

Author: Guest The incredibly colorful animation and easy to follow storyline make it a hit with girls who love Barbie.
Author: Guest Although I am not a big Barbie fan, my 4 and 6 year old girls love this movie. It is a pretty decent movie-good messages about being nice and doing the right thing. Believe it or not Barbie is actually a strong role model. She solves problems on her own and doesn't wait for her Prince to save her.
Author: Guest I bought this movie for my 5 year old daughter. She has watched it 2 times since Easter 2007. Deinately one she'll want to want to watch over and over!
Author: Guest Full of color this movie keeps my three daughters' attention. I like to watch the Barbie Movies too. What a great family movie for home movie night. It's a great movie that teaches kids how they should treat people, even if they are not treating well themselves.
Author: Guest My 5 year old daughter is a fan of all things Barbie and she (as well as I) enjoyed this movie to the max. Great animation and colors. And as always great message of respect and teamwork was learned thru this movie. That along with the cutest storyline of Barbie's Puffball Bibble's tooth falling out (on the same day my daughter lost her first tooth) and falling in love with Dizzle... too too cute!!
