DVD Review: Skeeter and the Mystery of the Lost Mosquito Treasure


I have just reviewed a DVD for Thomas Nelson’s Book Review Blogger program: http://brb.thomasnelson.com/

The DVD is Skeeter and the Mystery of the Lost Mosquito Treasure by Max Lucado.
If you have never watched a Hermie the Worm and Friends movie by Mr. Lucado, you REALLY need to get one. This is #12 in the series.

Here's some "product detail":
"Skeeter is a Mosquito who can't seem to do anything right. To make matter worse, he has a famous older brother who can't seem to do anything wrong! Skeeter's brother, the world famous adventurer Sir Sinclair M. Skeeto, shows up in the garden with a mysterious treasure map left by their father. When he arrives, the garden gang is awed by him and can't help but fawn all over him. Can Skeeter, with his crooked stinger, really help solve the mystery of the treasure's location?
Based on Psalm 139:13-14, kids will learn a lesson about each of us being designed especially by God. This episode introduces John O'Hurley as Sir Sinclair M. Skeeto, and also features the voice talents of Tim Conway and Melissa Disney. Running time: Approximately 60 minutes. Recommended for ages 4 to 10."

I have 3 children...ages 3, 11 and 13. All 3 of them enjoyed this movie (for varying reasons of course). Tim Conway and the other actors do such a wonderful job voicing the characters and Max Lucado does a fantastic job with the storyline.

Skeeter is a mosquito who loves his life in the garden but has always been self-councious of his crooked stinger. Through the help of his friends, and the Lord, Skeeter learns to accept his stinger as God's gift...God makes everyone an individual and wants us to use what HE has given US to further HIS will in our lives.

I highly recommend not only this particular DVD, but all in the series.
