the Serengeti Plain of Africa to a proper London boarding
school, Eliza Thornberry - television's favorite 12-year-old
who can communicate with animals -embarks on an epic adventure
like no other in her first film odyssey, The Wild Thornberrys
Movie.
Bringing the precocious young globetrotter

In the film, as greedy poachers descend
upon the jungles of Africa, Eliza arrives at one of the most
decisive moments she'll ever face and alone holds not only
the fate of the entire Thornberry clan in the balance, but
also that of her unique extended family of animals.
As she stands to lose the two things that
have made her life every kid's dream - her ability to talk
with animals and her experiences in traveling around the world
- Eliza must find the strength and courage to save the ones
she loves, and time is running out!
