reviewed You'll laugh and your kids will learn from Vischer's latest book on + 16 more book reviews


Phil Vischer, creator of VeggieTales, brings us the perilous tale of 47 beavers. Yes, folks you read that correctly - beavers. Written in an amusing most-of-the-time rhyming format, kids will love this exciting adventure story as these tenacious beavers escape an evil fur trapper in a canoe, battle the raging sea and a shark, and eventually set up a tourist resort in Hawaii. All while working together and using the philosophy "two minds are better than one and 47 are better than two!"

You will find yourself laughing along with your kids the whole way through. Kids too young to enjoy the story will still be captured by the bright and colorful pages and expressiveness of the beavers and their adversaries. Book includes a sing-along CD.

One word of warning: Not for the parent who frowns on imagination.
