Dodger and Me

(4) 4-6 Hampered by an overprotective mother, an annoyingly friendly classmate, and a spectacular lack of athletic ability, Willie is bemused but hopeful when a blue genie chimpanzee named Dodger appears, promising to improve Willie's life. Dodger's a better friend than genie, though, and chaos ensues. The inspired lunacy of the premise gets bogged down in mundane life lessons.
