Miley Stewart (Miley Cyrus) juggles life as a high school student by day and pop star by night in four episodes of the smash hit TV series.
Girls love Miley because she's so down-to-earth and real, whether she's home with her family or dressed up and performing as celebrity Hannah! They'll admire her ability to stay grounded and do the right thing, even when the perks of stardom are hard to resist, and will enjoy watching guest stars Corbin Bleu and Dwayne Johnson in a couple of very funny episodes. As it follows Miley's double life, the show continually proves to young viewers that there's nothing more important than being yourself--whoever that may be!
This DVD is intended for older children.

Six-year-olds won't share many of Miley's concerns--boys, new cell phones--and you may not want to encourage them to! Older girls are probably already fans, and will be eager to see how Miley handles herself in sticky situations, like when her new boyfriend's snobby parents call her family "a bunch of backwoods, banjo-strumming hillbilly gold diggers." They'll cheer her on as she tells them to "get your snooty booties out of our house" and "don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you!" Kids will laugh when Miley decides Hannah needs a new image, and tries to be hip-hop Hannah, techno-Hannah, and hard-edged Hannah, only to discover she's best as herself.
Tweens will be interested to see that just because Miley is a star, she still doesn't get everything she wants when she wants it. They'll relate to her obsession with the latest cell phone and will be very curious to see whether she'll actually go through with her plan to get it. Older girls will also find it reassuring that when Miley does get a little carried away with herself, she always gets put right back in her place.
