VEGGIETALES GALORE
OLD TO NEW
Many parents have requested that DVD’s of the older VeggieTales be purchased due to families replacing their video players with DVD machines. Because of the generosity of an anonymous donor, we have been able to acquire DVD’s of all our VeggieTales which were recorded on VHS.
Those selections are: MADAME BLUEBERRY, ESTHER, THE GIRL WHO BECAME QUEEN, JONAH A VEGGIETALES MOVIE, WHERE’S GOD WHEN I’M S-SCARED?, THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF AUTO-TAINMENT, THE ULTIMATE SILLY SONG COUNTDOWN, ARE YOU MY NEIGHBOR?, LYLE THE KINDLY VIKING, DAVE AND THE GIANT PICKLE, KING GEORGE AND THE DUCKY, THE BALLAD OF LITTLE JOE, GOD WANTS ME TO FORGIVE THEM!?!, JOSH AND THE BIG WALL!, RACK, SHACK & BENNY and the VeggieTales Holiday Double Feature which includes THE TOY THAT SAVED CHRISTMAS and THE STAR OF CHRISTMAS A CD, A VERY VEGGIE CHRISTMAS, featuring traditional and VeggieTales Christmas carols with most of the VeggieTales characters was included with the Christmas DVD
NEW, NEW, NEW
The same anonymous donor’s gift also enabled us to purchase the following Veggietales which we did not have before:
THE PIRATES WHO DON’T DO ANYTHING SING-ALONG SONGS AND MORE- DVD which includes scenes from the movie, The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything, plus wonderful, catchy songs
The UMW Circle #8 donated the following new Veggietales items:
LESSONS FROM THE SOCK DRAWER-a collection of Veggie Shorts and Briefs on DVD
SONGS FROM THE SOCK DRAWER-a CD of fun tunes from the DVD of the same name
TOMATO SAWYER & HUCKELBERRY LARRY’S BIG RIVER RESCUE-a lesson in helping others
So come check out all those old VeggieTales favorites now on DVD and the new adventures which will soon become favorites too. See you soon!
