It was worth the rental
I'm so glad we didn't purchase this DVD. We borrowed it from our local library. The music is too loud throughout the entire DVD. You will be turning up the volume to try and understand what anyone is trying to say and turning it down for the songs. Background music plays while you are trying to hear the children who speak too quietly. I've had to watch it repeatedly with my 5 year old just to try and understand what words they are saying on the dvd and it's sometimes hard to match those with the spelling of the words when they are telling you what was said.If you watch this DVD, be sure you already have some basic knowledge of Chinese/Mandrin so at least if you can't hear what they're saying, you'll already know what the word sounds like when they spell it out.
