Dude, this thing made me cry. It's a very beautiful depiction of the Christian life, and while I haven't read the book (yet), I think this film does a really great job at presenting the core allegory in an authentic and compelling way. The animation is pretty on point and the pacing and overall quality is really good. Kids should be fine to watch it, despite the presence of some scary elements. This is actually a really good way to introduce kids to the story and show them how it connects to scripture. I would definitely recommend it.
