Not as good as others... [Posted on 2006-10-02]
I just wasn't as crazy with this DVD as with some of the others. And, unfortunately, my daughter agreed. She has every SS movie released (although she hasn't received 3 of them as we are holding them for Christmas) and this one just didn't keep her attention as much as the others. Perhaps b/c in this movie the "regular" friends (Orange Blossom, Ginger Snap, Angel Cake and Huck) do not play as big of a part as in the other movies. This can be a big deal to a 2-5 yr. old toddler who likes things to be the way they are "supposed" to be. And my daughter is very much like that. She likes the "regular" friends and I think she missed them a bit in this movie. Perhaps if they were featured a bit more she would have taken to it quicker.

She eventually warmed up to this one, but it took several times of playing it before she got used to the new characters and started to like them. Even now, she will ask to watch others over this one.

This DVD highlights making friends with those who are different from yourself (from different places, those who like different things than you do). A lesson I feel is is an important one to convey. But when I watched this with my daughter for the first time, I kind of felt that the movie was one big advertisement for the SS Friendship Club. Maybe not, but I know there is a freindship club online and there is a line of SS merchandise geared towards this premise. It just didn't sit right with me.

I like the others better, but I still gave this 4 stars b/c the storyline was cute, the lesson is valuable and although it is not her favorite, my daughter still enjoys it. And that's what really counts :)

Great For Any Strawberry Shortcake Lover [Posted on 2007-01-11]
We love Strawberry Shortcake in this house and this movie doesn't fall short of our expectations. Strawberry and friends go around the world to meet new people from other countries. Very cute.

We love WOF! [Posted on 2007-11-26]
Honestly, we love World of Friends. I find it a lot less annoying than many of the other SS DVDs we have--the song is very cute and my daughter loves this movie about friendship. I don't know why you wouldn't consider this educational--at least it teaches values, which is something a lot of the junk on TV doesn't do. And kids have to have fun sometimes too anyway--lighten up.

We like it. [Posted on 2008-01-08]
We got this for our 3 yr. old this Christmas. She loves it and wants to see it almost everyday. It's friendly and happy. No violence, no inappropriate words that I hear sometimes in many of todays, "children," shows. I recommend it for any girl 2 to 12 yrs. old.

Cute! [Posted on 2008-07-15]
