Some of the best known Bible stories get a dose of wacky humor courtesy of the VeggieTales gang in this 75-minute "best of" collection. Junior Asparagus takes center stage as the Bible's "Good Samaritan" in "The Story of Flibber-O-Loo" (from the episode Are You My Neighbor?). The complete episodes of Rack, Shack & Benny and Josh and the Big Wall round out the program. The former finds Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber, and Junior inside the chocolate bunny factory of King Nebuchadnezzar (here, a giant cucumber), while the latter finds some pesky French peas in the path of those searching for the Promised Land. Certainly a great starter for those getting into the Christian-lite series that proves you can have a lot of fun while teaching age-old lessons. Each segment begins with energetic youngsters discussing the themes. For ages 4 to adult. --Doug Thomas

Cute And Compelling.......2005-12-30

"VeggieTales-Heroes of the Bible-Stand Up, Stand Tall, Stand Strong!" is a wonderful DVD packed with three great stories from our favorite vegetable friends. Though I was always familiar with VeggieTales, I never saw any point in watching their shows since I was an adult. However, since introducing my daughter to the little guys, I've grown to love them myself.

In this particular DVD, we are taught the lessons of the Good Samaritan in "The Story of Flibber-O-Loo." In it, we learn to love our neighbor no matter who they are or what they do. In "Rack, Shack, and Benny," we are shown the brave tale of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Conveniently called Rack, Shack, and Benny to make the story a little easier for children to swallow, we are shown how to stand strong for our beliefs no matter what the consequences may be. In "Josh and the Big Wall," we learn of Joshua and the people of Israel's solid faith in God even though what God tells them to do seems a little bit out of the ordinary. It lets kids know that even though they may be laughed at for their faith, God will be there to help them out of any situation.

Three cute stories divided by interviews with children who give their description of each story and a few tongue-twisting names (such as Nebuchadnezzar) are what you get on this DVD. It teaches great life lessons with a Christian foundation. Get it for your children today.

Good intro to Veggie Tales.......2004-11-25

This DVD is the second in the "Heroes of the Bible" series of Veggie Tales compilations. This volume contains "The Story of Flibber-O-Loo" (The parable of the Good Samaritan) and the classic episodes "Rack, Shack, & Benny" (The story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego) and "Josh and the Big Wall" (The story of Joshua at Jericho). Each of these stories can be played individually or as an entire themed program via the "Play All" selection from the main menu.

These videos are just as much fun for parents as they are for kids. What I found to be extra fun with this package is the candid interview footage with some children as they talk about what it means to be a hero and give their unique takes on the Bible stories on which the Veggie Tales shows are based.

A side note: People familiar with the previous stand-alone "Rack, Shack, & Benny" adventure may be interested to know that the episode as presented on this DVD contains a different version of "The Bunny Song." Lyrics about not loving one's parents and refusing to go to church and school have been replaced with protestations about healthy eating. While the motives for the lyric change are commendable (I really don't want my son going around singing "I don't love my mom or my dad, just the bunny!"), the dramatic effect is lost. But what are you gonna do?

This DVD is a great introduction to the world of Veggie Tales. If you've got kids, these programs feature top notch animation, colorful and crazy characters, silly songs, and positive life lessons. Highly recommended.

last VT purchase.......2003-12-30

this was our first and last VeggieTales purchase. The stories are so far from the actual story in the bible I had a hard time discovering what the actual story was...my son didn't seem interested, and the characters speak so quickly that we had a hard time keeping up.
We are big on books so next time we will spend that $$ on a nice bible story book to curl up with and read to our son.

Great way to reach young children.......2003-06-26

Actually, my husband and I started watching (and buying) Veggietales videos BEFORE we ever had children! We love the humor and the creativity of the writers and animators. I must say the quality of the graphics has improved over time!

I honestly thought that the Veggies would be "too old" for my two-year old, but gave it a try anyway. I was very wrong!! Currently, we watch nothing but Veggietales and Blue's Clues! I am happy to see my young daughter watching videos that help to provide her with great moral values based on Biblical Principles!

We actually own each of these videos separately. I plan to replace my current videos with the newer DVD format... so that I may have even MORE room for these great buys! My only complaint is that they do not have all 3 videos in their entirety! (Fifteen minutes of the video "Are you my neighbor?" is missing.)

Great intro to the series...........2003-06-03

This is was first look at Veggie Tales. My almost 2-year-old son only wants to watch this DVD. It moves quickly and there is a lot of singing and dancing. We loved it so much we rented "Esther" and were so disappointed. Esther moved so slow and was not at all upbeat. We aren't sure what our second purchase will be because we loved "Hero's" but hated the next one. If you've had a bad experience or are looking for your first helping of the Veggies GET THIS ONE!
