McKenna Shoots for the Stars is Here

The FedEx truck just left and when I opened the box, Natalie literally screamed!! We were sent a review copy of McKenna Shoots for the Stars and within minutes it was out of the wrapper and into the DVD player!

McKenna Shoots for the Stars

So, we are watching it now and I can already tell you that we will probably watch this a whole bunch more in the next few weeks.

The opening song is catchy. Its fun to watch all the gymnastics. So far the story line is very believable and not too cheesy!

Back to the movie… I will do a full review of the movie once we finish watching it, but so far, I say it will be very popular with American Girl’s target market. The movie will be out in stores on July 3rd and will be televised on July 14th on NBC.
