Perhaps my favorite Veggie Tales video yet!
These videos are so clever. They include humor that only an older child or an adult would understand while still having great kid-appeal. This series is truly whole-family viewing material!
In this particular episode, King George (aka Larry the Cucumber) is playing in the bath with his rubber duckie. He has a whole collection of duckies, but he spies a little guy taking a bath with *his* duckie from his window. (Think of David and Bathsheba here) Even though he has plenty of duckies, he wants the little guy's (Junior Asparagus') duckie!
Before the story begins, Jimmy and Jerry gourd try to take Bob and Larry's place introducing the show - with hilarious results!
I guarantee you'll love this video - it's for children of ALL ages!
God bless you all and check out my other reviews!
Cream of the Veggie Crop
This has to be one of my favorite Veggie videos! Jimmy and Jerry Gourd attempt to host the show (something they've wanted to do since Dave and the Giant Pickle) disguised as Bob and Larry. They show a story entitled "The Englishman who went up the hill and came down with all the bananas." You have to see it! A classic! Fortunaly, the real tomato and cucumber come and show King George and the Ducky. At first I found it hard to believe that Big Idea made a children's video on the story of David and Bathsheba, but the only thing King George (aka Larry) desires is Thomas's (aka Jr. Asparaus) rubber ducky. This video has wonderful music (I Love My Duck will be running through your head for hours!) and the Silly Song is truly wonderful. This video is fun, and the lesson is a wonderful lesson for children.
A tale of selfishness...
This is another great installment in the Veggie Tales series. It is a very cleverly disguised retelling of the story of David and Bathsheba. The video opens with a brief stint by Jimmy and Jerry Gourd, who are not so cleverly disgiused as Bob and Larry, as hosts. After their parable about not being selfish, titled The Englishman who went up a hill and came down with all the bananas ( you have to see it, it's priceless), the real story unfolds. King George, played by Larry, is in love with his rubber ducky. His kingdom is engaged in the Great Pie War but he has no interest in it. He would rather be in the tub with his duck. All is well until he spies Thomas down in the village, in a tub, with a duck (that is identical to his own). He decides his duck, or any of the other ones in his closet, is not good enough and he must have Thomas'. So, he sends Thomas off to the war and takes his duck. I don't want to give away the end but he learns his lesson. Like the other...
