Question
I am looking for the name of the movie that I seen when I was a little girl.  
The movie as I remember had a little girl that leaped through a miror to go on
an adventure to collected red berries(looked like small tomatoes)  and gather
them for her grandmothers birthday party.  The magical berries were
supposed to keep you young forever. In the movie, I also remember other
char. like a bookworm, elephant...  Hope you can help b/c I think my
daughter would enjoy this film very much. :) Thank you ~ Brooke

Answer
Brooke-
I believe you are looking for "The Hugga Bunch Movie" from 1984. Here is the synopsis I found - "A film about a young girl on a quest to save her grandmother from being put in a home. She gets visited by Huggins from Huggaland. She travels through the mirror and visits the bookworm. The bookworm tells of a tree the produced Young Berries that will help keep her grandmother young. These berries are protected by a wicked queen. She'll need all the friends she can gather to get the berries back to her grandmother in time!"

That sounds pretty close to your description. You can find the DVD for sale on-line.

Hope this helps!
