Michele writes:: How did she spell it in the movie, I really can't remember, I looked up the way that you spelled it and that is the correct spelling!; 3 of 3 people found this comment helpful. Did you?

Me writes:: Look before you leap, people! I don't know where Burak did his/her research, but, as some of these commenters have said, Streatfeild is the correct author, and, yes, she is female. If you don't know for certain, don't judge the movie harshly.; 3 of 3 people found this comment helpful. Did you?

Ozma3412 writes:: Yeah, but in a movie they should've spelled it right don't ya think?; 2 of 3 people found this comment helpful. Did you?

Liz writes:: I work in the children's department at my local library and I've seen Noel Streatfeild's books many times. Meg Ryan's character spells it right.; 1 of 1 people found this comment helpful. Did you?

Allstar Angel writes:: And Meg's character is supposed to be an expert on children's books, right? I mean, she owned her own store for however many years. Therefore, she would be in charge of what they order, and she should KNOW how to spell the author's name. Even more so since she LOVED the Shoe Books so much! It IS a big deal!; 2 of 5 people found this comment helpful. Did you?

Obeth writes:: Anybody notice that she happened to be under emotional duress at the time? She'd lost her store and was examining the remarkable, splashy children's section in the store of the guy who ran her out of business. It's possible that her mind wasn't entirely on spelling.; 1 of 4 people found this comment helpful. Did you?

friends gurl writes:: uhh..hello! we are humans, we aren't exactly the next webster,(well, most of us aren't)so it's possible that we CAN make mistakes! hmm..i bet even you *slip-up* sometimes!!!; 1 of 5 people found this comment helpful. Did you?

Laura B in TN writes:: She SHOULD have spelled it correctly. She is supposed to be the sympathetic character & the authority on children's books. This takes credibility away from her character. She should know the correct spelling. This IS a big blunder.; 3 of 15 people found this comment helpful. Did you?
