Dans un cours de français, ce film peut être utilisé comme un déclencheur qui révélera aux lecteurs réticents toute la magie de la lecture. Comment le réalisateur parvient-il à démontrer à quel point les personnages des contes sont vivants? La lecture peut-elle donner vie aux personnages des histoires que lit Meena? À quoi sert la lecture?
