Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
If you want some morality tossed lightly with education in the videos your children watch, then this is a series for you. These Christian vegetables with a hip sensibility (sample dialogue: 'You are so early-'90s.') play out a Batman-meets-Back to the Future scenario when a young asparagus tells his dad a lie to get out of trouble. That lie, embodied by a space alien, grows until it threatens the entire vegetable village, provoking Larry the Cucumber to heed the signal in the sky and hop into his flying Larrymobile designed by the eccentric and fallible inventor Alfred Asparagus. Action, music, and a Jerry-Springer-style deconstruction at the end with a blink-and-you-missed-it reference to God make for a half hour of involving and wholesome entertainment. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Rating: - Lies Are Easy
How many times have I told a lie in hopes of avoiding the consequences? Too many to count.

In this lesson we are all reminded that the worst things usually start from a very small beginning. Junior tells a small fib in order to avoid his punishment. Instead of getting out of his own troubles, he creates troubles for everyone else. Before long the entire town is suffering because of one fib. Junior has to learn the power of the truth in order to save everyone.

Your child will learn how important it is to always be honest. And you will be reminded that you should encourage your child to be forthright with you, so they won't be scared of you. Let them know there's nothing they could do that could ever change the way you feel about them. This is a great story for everyone.

Veggietales are entertaining for the whole family. We own nearly every one of them. Highly recommended.

Rating: - good learning tool
I am having trouble conveying to my child the value of telling the truth. This story put it in terms a child can relate to. Time will tell if it helps!

Rating: - Great show for the kids...oh yeah, a good lesson too!
My 2 boys really enjoy this show, it's one of their favorite Veggie Tales stories. I guess because there is a superhero involved. Larry-boy is totally cool in their opinion, and I like him too. This is by far the best Larry-boy show in my mind. The theme song is pretty rockin'...my 8-year old loves to dance to it.

Rating: - Good video, better for older kids I think
I loved the story in this video but my three-year-old was a bit scared of this one (unusual for Veggie Tales). The morale is great, as usual.
