I am dreading the US version, though I like the idea that Rutger Hauer will play the Afrikkaner, Du Plessis. The episode where everybody comes down with an illness (won't spoil it for you) is genuinely well done and kept me riveted. That makes the story lines a touch more sophisticated than the eye rollers give it credit for. You see, their difficulties parallel of the overall difficulty in assimilating into the African lifestyle. So, I enjoy the emotional region the program explores, and especially the difficulty in having the two families assimilate into one.
That makes sentimental pieces invaluable, I think. If we did, we would have no need of therapists, right? And so we denigrate those who explore this psychological ground, using symbols and story lines to tell us something about ourselves. They tend to get to the emotional nitty gritty that most of us do not want explored, either in others or ourselves. For some, the sentimental nature of the stories is worthy of a roll of the eyes or feigned disgust. Published 22 January 2000 With the help of her veterinarian grandmother and the other volunteers at the Wild at Heart Animal Clinic, eleven-year-old Maggie rescues sick puppies from an illegal puppy mill. I am a fan of Stephen Thompkinson, ever since first seeing him in Ballykissangel. Book 1 Fight for Life by Laurie Halse Anderson. Second, I like fish-out-of-water stories. In Book 1 of the Magic Animal Friends series by Daisy Meadows, Lucy Longwhiskers Gets Lost, animal lovers Jess and Lily visit the magical Friendship Forest, and help rescue the bunny Lucy Longwhiskers from the wicked witch Grizelda.
