Dds (8 & 6 yo) are eager to see some Shirley Temple movies, after reading The Year of the Boar.

Any recommendations for the best ones?

A Little Princess is my favorite.

I always loved A Little Colonel, though I'm sure it's chock full or racism (I haven't seen it since I was very little!). I liked Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm too, though it's very different from the book. Oddly, I HATED A Little Princess because it was so different from the book and the book was one of my favorites!

FWIW, I just got a box set of 3 Shirley Temple movies for $12 at Costco. They had a few different sets. I got them for when DD is a little older.

Thanks! I loved Little Princess as a book but never saw the movie. DDs haven't read it, so maybe we should do the movie first.

Thanks for the tip about Costco. Ebay has some pretty cheap copies too, so maybe I can find a bunch then just try them out.
