Editorial Review:
Elina knows that it's difficult feeling like you don't belong, so when Bibble decides not to visit a friend for fear of not fitting in, Elina relates the story of a butterfly fairy named Mariposa who loves to read and dream about the stars and the worlds beyond her land, but never quite feels like she fits in with her fellow fairies. Flutterfield was once a land of frightened fairies forced to hide in darkness from the monster-like Skeezites who devour butterfly fairies, but is now ruled by kind Queen Marabella who protects her land with glowing flowers. When a power-hungry fairy named Henna poisons the Queen in hopes of stealing the throne, it falls to Mariposa to venture outside Flutterfield to find the antidote to the poison and save the Queen. With some unlikely help from her attitude-laden employers Rayna and Rayla as well as her friend Willa and a little bunny fairy named Zinzie, Mariposa must bravely confront her own self-doubt as well as the Skeezites and other dangers in order to save Flutterfield and its Queen. Along the way, Mariposa learns that the best thing a fairy can be is oneself. This fourth Barbie Fairytopia adventure has all the visual appeal and wonder of the previous Fairytopia DVDs with a nice message about liking oneself. (Ages 3 to 9) --Tami Horiuchi

A new heroine for the fourth "Fairytopia" film This fourth offering in Mattel's series of "Fairytopia" Barbie films continues the trend towards ever more beautiful animation, has a very similar plot, and introduces a new heroine. As with every previous "Barbie" video, my six year old daughter absolutely loves it and has watched it many times. As he has now reached the age where he doesn't think he's supposed to enjoy "girlie" things, her twin brother pretends not to like it, but he seems to find his way into the family TV room and sit down to watch a... more info
The Fairytopia Collection Mariposa is number 4 in this Fairytopia collection, as Elena is narrating this story.
This was just as lovely as the others, kept my daughter quiet for hours (and her the many friends shes had over in the Easter break)
My only complaint is that its being over done now, this is the 4th! Getting a bit bored of Elena.
Im looking forward to the one in Autumn "Barbie in The Diamond Castle"
I realise I am an adult but it doesnt take the enjoyment out of these lovely films, even my husband... more info
Great! I bought this for my sister and she absolutely loves it! Can't stop watching it - now wants the doll as well! It's definitely worth buying to keep the youngsters quiet over the Easter break - a must have!
Flutter away with Mariposa A different twist to the previous Fairytopia movies - Barbie stars as Mariposa a butterfly fairy living in the land of Flutterfield and my daughter loved it. She is a massive Barbie fan and this film delivered on all angles and Zinzie is her new favourite character. I was also impressed with the butterfly attracting seeds which we planted on the same day in the hope that Mariposa and her friends will come and visit!
