'Veggie Tales Bob Lends a Hand'
(Animation / DVD / NR / 2011 / Vivendi)

Overview: Kids will learn the value of helping others, right along with Larry and Tiny Joe, that everyone can be a superhero by lending a helping hand! This DVD also includes two classic shows: Tomato Sawyer and Huckleberry Larry's Big River Rescue and Lyle the Kindly Viking PLUS a brand new story featuring the new song A Helping Hand!

DVD Verdict: As expected, fully expected not even hoped, 'Veggie Tales Bob Lends a Hand' is yet another great Veggie Tales DVD! Our family and friends have been watching Veggie Tales for some time, and this one adds again to the powerful message that these DVD's share.

What I like most about this DVD (as well as all of the DVDs) is that they are DVDs that carry positive messages with a spiritual underpinning, but beyond that, they also share messages about things that are important to all about what God has in store for each and every one of us.

In this new tale, when Little Joe's mom breaks her big left toe, Bob the Tomato decides to help. Larry and Joe decide to help too, in "superhero" style help, but it's not exactly what Bob had in mind! Thus, Larry and Joe end up learning that you don't need to be a superhero to help others - helping others is what makes YOU a superhero!

And aside from the addition of the two classic Veggie Tales episodes noted above, some bonus features include: a Singalong to "Bob Lends A Helping Hand", the "Bob Lends A Helping Hand" interactive book, "How to Draw Tom and Huck", and a little "Boiling River Family Activity". Thus, in general and when watched especially, I am hoping that the message learned will stay with them for a long time to come! This is a Widescreen Presentation (1.77:1) enhanced for 16x9 TVs.
