Little Pea
Dinner time has arrived, and Little Pea is dreading what is on his plate. Instead of delicious, crunchy vegetables, he is forced to eat sweet, sticky candy. It is every young pea's worst nightmare, but his parents insist that he must finish his main course if he wants any hope of getting dessert.
This hilarious twist on family dinner routines will have you laughing out loud. You will easily relate to the struggle of having to eat food you do not like, even if the menu is completely backward.
Watch as he bravely tries to swallow the sugary treats, keeping his eyes on the ultimate prize. If he can just get through the candy, a wonderful, healthy bowl of spinach is waiting for him at the very end.

It is dinner time, and a mother bird needs her son, Peter, to fly home immediately. She whispers a simple message to the bird sitting next to her on the telephone wire: tell Peter to come home. But passing a message down a long line of birds is much harder than it looks. As you follow the message from beak to beak, you will see how each silly bird changes the words to match their own hobbies. A bird who loves baseball thinks the message is about hitting a home run, while another thinks it is about a monster. The message gets wilder and weirder with every whisper. Will the correct words ever reach Peter at the end of the line, or will he miss dinner completely? You will laugh out loud at this hilarious game of telephone in the sky.

It is simply not fair when all of your friends get to go to sleep at a normal, early hour. That is the frustrating problem facing one extremely tired young bird who just wants to tuck himself into his cozy nest.
Unfortunately, his parents have strict rules about how a proper owl should behave. They insist that he must stay awake late into the night, jumping on the bed and playing on the jungle gym, even when his eyes are drooping.
You will love this hilarious reversal of the classic bedtime battle. It is a wonderfully funny look at family rules, proving that sometimes children really do want to just close their eyes and go straight to sleep.
