Treasury of 25 Storybook Classics: Dinosaurs, Trucks, Monsters and More! (Scholastic Storybook Treasures) Specifications


Scholastic Storybook Treasures are award-winning adaptations of some of the best-loved children's books of all time. Each piece faithfully preserves the words and artwork of the original stories using animation, camera movement, and sometimes live action to bring the words on the page to life on the screen. The Dinosaurs, Trucks, Monsters and More! compilation features four DVDs with stories about things that fascinate children: dinosaurs, trucks, food, toys, and animals. The How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight? disc follows some unruly dinosaurs as they get ready for bed, learn about manners, and spend a day at home sick in bed. Danny and the Dinosaur explores what might happen if a dinosaur came to life for a day, Stanley and the Dinosaurs features a clever live-action, animatronic dinosaur who uses his head to solve problems, Dinosaur Bones is essentially a jazz recitation of dinosaur facts, and T is for Terrible showcases a sensitive T-Rex who ponders his bad reputation. Trucks and other wheeled vehicles prove just how important they are to society in the second disc which includes I Stink, Trashy Town, Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel, and The Remarkable Riderless Runaway Tricycle. Friendship takes on some strange new forms in Arnie the Doughnut and The Beast of Monsieur Racine. In the third disc, imagination runs wild with fantastical creatures, everyday people, and strange mythical talents. Laugh along with the silly antics of Pete's a Pizza, take a fantastical journey to earth with the Moon Man, imagine what you can create with Max's Words, and ponder the remarkable talents of The Five Chinese Brothers. Other stories include The Great White Man-Eating Shark, The Island of Skog, and What's Under My Bed?. The final disc presents Beverly Cleary's The Mouse and the Motorcycle, a 41-minute live action, animatronic film from 1986 in which a young boy named Keith discovers and befriends a talking mouse who ends up riding his toy motorcycle and providing Keith with much-needed medication. The live-action Wee Gillis, from 1938, chronicles a boy's struggle to decide between the highland and lowland life in Scotland, highlighting his realization that he's destined to combine aspects of both ways of life. Each story is expertly narrated, often by celebrities like Chevy Chase or Anthony Edwards, most offer read-along options, and there are also three bonus Spanish versions of How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight?, Danny and the Dinosaur, and Moon Man. For a multisensory experience, find a copy of the books and help your child follow along as she watches--it's doubly enjoyable that way and it might just inspire a lifelong love of reading.

Check Out Mother Goose Treasury - Vol. 2 for $5.97

Mother Goose Treasury - Vol. 2 Review



I was first introduced to this series as a teen while babysitting 20 years ago. I purchased the 4 VHS tapes for my firstborn 15 years ago, and with a tear in my eye gave them away when we no longer had a VCR. I was elated to find 2 treasuries on DVD, and even more excited when I discovered all the original songs and rhymes were combined into the 2 DVD's. The songs are catchy and easy for youngsters to remember. I enjoy "singing along" to my favorite classics while my children from 3 mos old to 11 yrs old enjoy the colorful costumes of the dancing characters.

Another plus for the DVD is being able to play it on short car trips without fussing about having to see it to the end. This is truly a timeless series!




Mother Goose Treasury - Vol. 2 Overview


The most endured and popular nursery rhymes of Mother Goose are timeless, and children who could only see and hear the classic tales, can now sing along. Each song is lavishly produced with full orchestration, beautiful costuming, and exquisitely detaile


Mother Goose Treasury - Vol. 2 Specifications


Tired of inane sing-along videos with cheesy music and a lack of cohesiveness? The Mother Goose Treasury, Vol. 2 features fully orchestrated songs, elaborate costuming, bright backgrounds, and even a story line! The scatterbrained Mother Goose and her young gosling Bertram are headed to town to complete some grocery shopping. Along the way they encounter a plethora of famous Mother Goose characters, including Jack (as in "Jack be nimble, Jack be quick"), Miss Muffet, Mary (and her lamb), Humpty Dumpty, and Simple Simon. Each encounter elicits a recitation of the appropriate story, either in song or verse, complete with choreography, puppetry, and onscreen subtitles. The "puppetronic" technology deserves special mention--it brings the puppetry to life and is suggestive of Jim Henson's Muppet productions. Joining the puppets is a large cast of human actors who sing, dance, and generally enthrall audiences from 3 to 8 years old. This volume offers 58 minutes of sing-along fun that kids will request repeatedly. For more Mother Goose sing-alongs, check out Mother Goose Treasury, Vol. 1. --Tami Horiuchi
