Based on the series by Max Lucado Hermie & Friends, this DVD stars Skeeter and his perfect brother Sir Sinclair M. Skeeto and their adventures in the garden and using each others gifts to find hidden treasure. Throughout the story kids are reminded that Gods love for us is the greatest gift of all and parents unconditional love for their children. It also addresses sibling rivalry in a way that kids can really relate to. Sibling rivalry is a part of most lives, this cute DVD shows kids how everyone is unique and different and has their own special gifts. In the eyes of God, everyone is special. The Bible verse Psalm 139:13-14 talks about each of us being designed especially by God, this DVD nicely captures the verse in a way that children will understand all that God has in store for each one of us, and how encouraging and loving one another is a much better way to live than tearing each other down.The DVDs in the Hermie & Friends series are a good fit for the 3 8 year old age range. The pacing is slow enough for little ones to follow the story yet have enough interesting parts for older children to watch along as well. And as one might expect, this is definitely family-friendly with no violence or questionable language at any time. Overall, Skeeter and the Mystery of the Lost Mosquito Treasure is a nice addition to the Hermie & Friends series and enjoyable for the kids.

I use these videos in Children's church. The kids love them. So far this is the only oneof the three I recently purchased they have viewed. It was a big hit!

Skeeter and Sir Sinclair M. Skeeto are two very unique individuals. They are unique not simply because they are mosquitos but also in that they are brothers with very different personalities. Skeeter has a crooked nose that he is ashamed of and wonders if he is of any use. Sir Sinclair M. Skeeto on the other hand is quite proud of himself but also hides a little something he is ashamed of. The two brothers join together to find the lost treasure and discover that their individual particularities are what makes them unique and allows them to discover the treasure. Based on Psalm 139:13-14, our two friends learn a very important lesson: Each of us is special because we are created by God. Just like the other stories in this DVD series, this one is very well done. The characters are fun to watch and youll enjoy getting to know them. The story is mixed with a good dose of humor. My kids enjoyed watching it and have asked to see it over and over again. The specific theme of each DVD makes it easy for parents to open up discussion with their children and elaborate on the theme. The DVD quality is great plus it offers a few bonus features.I certainly recommend this DVD and the others in the Hermie & Friends series. Your kids will enjoy them and so will you!

What do you get when you take some great animation, top-notch voice actors, good storyline and an excellent lesson and roll them altogether in a new kid's movie? You get the newest in Max Lucado's Hermie and Friends line of DVDs. And it is a treat. To top off the excellent quality of the movie, the lesson in this particular one is wonderful. All about celebrating our uniqueness and realizing that we are designed by God to be exactly who he made us to be. Based on this movie and the fact that I have 6 kids, I think Hermie and his friends will be coming to stay at our house a lot more!
