Winner - Academy Foundation's Nicholls Fellowship in Screenwriting. "Combining live action and animation, this program provides an easy to understand, fast paced primer on how a jury trial works ...Most of the DVD consists of a mock trial in which the key witness is an elementary grader who saw a fender bender accident while at recess. Approximately 20 key words ranging from "objections" to"bailiff" to "evidence" are explained....Younger viewers will enjoy this DVD and learn some important facts about what happens in a court room...This program will teach youngsters about our justice system and help to allay some of the fears of young children who have to appear in court as witnesses." - School Library Journal.
