Finding Nemo Review

Nembo (as my son calls him) is a huge hit with little ones and parents alike. I think this is a must have in any kids collection.

The story is about the complex relationship between a father and son clown fish. Marlin, the Dad, is having a hard time letting Nemo grow up. Nemo, on the other hand, is actively asserting his power to be out in the world or "school" of fish. One day, Nemo defies his Dad and goes out into open water. Nemo ends up being snatched up by a scuba diver. The remainder of the story is Marlin's quest to find his son in Syndey and Nemo's quest to find his Dad. As they journey to find each other, they individually make friends along the way with great characters such as Dorie the forgetful fish (amazingly acted by Ellen DeGeneras), Bruce the shark (also a big hit with my kids) and some cool and hip characters like the "rad' 100 year old turtle.

This is a must have in my book.
