As opposed to buying Scholastic’s single DVD releases which feature anywhere between four to six stories, the option exists to go for one of the bundle packs, which is essentially three of the individual discs tossed into one boxed set. The latest two such sets are My First Collection Vol. 2 featuring Spoon and Chrysanthemum…and More Whimsical Stories, featuring classic folk songs and stories by beloved children’s book authors including Kevin Henkes, Jack Kent, Mercer Mayer, Rosemary Wells and Bob Barner brought to life by the voices of popular actors and musicians like Chrystal Taliafero, Raul Malo, Mia Farrow, Meryl Streep, Sarah Jessica Parker, Danny Glover, and Patrick Stewart.

Welcome to the world of Rosemary Wells. She's an author and illustrator of children's books and now we are able to see these books come to life. Is this a good thing? Allow me to go out on a limb and say 'no, it is not.' However, it is possible that viewers ages 2 to 7, (the age range for which the DVD indicates this series is intended), might enjoy this. If so, then we as a society need to evaluate what the kiddies are watching.
What do kids ages 2 to 7 look for in being entertained via the TV? If we chalk it up to bright colors and a soothing storytelling narrator, then why even bother animating the talking animal cartoons and writing a story that likely was written in under three minutes? The two discs each come with four animated tales along with some extra content. Because this series is best for kids,...
