Traces the time travel adventures of Nia, an African princess and her magical pet, Funzi the Fuzzwuzz, as they learn about famous African-American heroes. Adult Jurors: Appealing, cute characters, good story, great music. Good stealth learning for science, history, and language. Stimulates questions about black history. Kid Jurors: The music was a hit. The story is confusing when it jumps between past and present. Kids like the ending that explains what is real and isn't.
