Age rating, content warnings & parent guide

2003

Is Boundin' appropriate for your child? See the reviewed age guidance, content cautions, positive themes, and supporting evidence below.

On a high mountain plain lives a lamb with wool of such remarkable sheen that he breaks into high-steppin' dance. But there comes a day when he loses his lustrous coat and, along with it, his pride. It takes a wise jackalope - a horn-adorned rabbit - to teach the moping lamb that wooly or not, it's what's inside that'll help him rebound from life's troubles.
