I came to this page, because I was trying to find Childrens Circle; I was trying to find a place to order CC/WW videotapes for home use. Those used to be available (then, for $20), and are absolutely wonderful. Now I fear only the school and library editions are available. Monday (12/24), or at some business day in the near future, I will dial 800-KIDS VID, and find out the truth. It is wonderful to find out more about how the films were made. I knew I loved the makers; loving the films as I do, how could I not? And the films make the books all the more accessible. The teach one to read . . . .
