Madeline's boarding school, the "old house in Paris that was covered with vines," is falling apart in this lively installment of the video series based on the characters of the beloved Ludwig Bemelmans books. When falling plaster nearly hits some dignitaries touring the antiquated building, it's the last straw for the owner, who puts up a condemnation sign and sends the dozen schoolgirls, their teacher, and their cook to live in a cramped apartment across town. Disaster ensues when the neighbors take an instant dislike to the rowdy girls, not to mention their dog, Genevieve. But never fear, Miss Clavel gets to sing, Madeline involves the historical society, and--with the help of some handymen--the old house becomes the refurbished "new" house of the title. --Kimberly Heinrichs

One of my son's favorite! June 25, 2000
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I have to admit, I was a little apprehensive in buying my son Madeline videos. But to my surprise, they're absolutely fantastic for boys and girls! He particuliarly loves this one. He imitates some of the funny sounds (like when the girls are going up the elevator and make a "whuuuuup" sound). Then there is the "Aww cots!" that the girls yell out in disgust. Madeline and the girls dislike their new quarters from the get go. But, as usual, Miss Clavel shows them the brighter side of the situation and sings a wonderful little song (Home Is Where the Heart Is) where all the little girls join in in unison. Watching my son stand in front of the tv joining in as well almost brought tears to my eyes. It's so cute seeing him interact with all the videos. I just ordered him 3 more Madeline tapes and will continue buying them!
 Teaches children importance of preserving our heritage February 19, 2000

Apart from being plain-old fun, as all Madeline books and videos are, this video teaches children the important of preserving historical buildings rather than destroying them. (If you want to share that concept with your kids in other ways, you might also want to read your children the book, "Barn Savers", by Linda Oatman High.)
