Editorial Review:
If you want some morality tossed lightly with education in the videos your children watch, then this is a series for you. These Christian vegetables with a hip sensibility (sample dialogue: "You are so early-'90s.") play out a Batman-meets-Back to the Future scenario when a young asparagus tells his dad a lie to get out of trouble. That lie, embodied by a space alien, grows until it threatens the entire vegetable village, provoking Larry the Cucumber to heed the signal in the sky and hop into his flying Larrymobile designed by the eccentric and fallible inventor Alfred Asparagus. Action, music, and a Jerry-Springer-style deconstruction at the end with a blink-and-you-missed-it reference to God make for a half hour of involving and wholesome entertainment. --Kimberly Heinrichs
"The name's Fibrilious Minimus! But you can call me Fib!" A little fib turns into a big problem for Junior Asparagus! With dad's favorite bowling plate in pieces, Junior is sure to be punished ... until a strange visitor advises him to cover his tracks with a little white lie. Dad buys the story, but Junior notices his new friend seems a little bigger now and a lot less cute! Lies have a way of growing -- and it isn't long before Junior's "little fib" has grown into a 30-foot-tall monster, threatening to devour all of Bumblyburg! There's only one person to call in a crisis like this ... Bumblyburg's own superhero, Larry-Boy! But can anyone stop the Fib from Outer Space?!? Kids will have fun as they learn that "a lie can trap you, but the truth will set you free!"

Rating:  - Lies Are Easy
How many times have I told a lie in hopes of avoiding the consequences? Too many to count.
In this lesson we are all reminded that the worst things usually start from a very small beginning. Junior tells a small fib in order to avoid his punishment. Instead of getting out of his own troubles, he creates troubles for everyone else. Before long the entire town is suffering because of one fib. Junior has to learn the power of the truth in order to save everyone.

Rating: - Another Great Veggietales!
Veggietales are entertaining for the whole family. We own nearly every one of them. Highly recommended.
Rating: - good learning tool
I am having trouble conveying to my child the value of telling the truth. This story put it in terms a child can relate to. Time will tell if it helps!
Rating:  - Great show for the kids...oh yeah, a good lesson too!
My 2 boys really enjoy this show, it's one of their favorite Veggie Tales stories. I guess because there is a superhero involved. Larry-boy is totally cool in their opinion, and I like him too. This is by far the best Larry-boy show in my mind. The theme song is pretty rockin'...my 8-year old loves to dance to it.
Rating: - Good video, better for older kids I think
I loved the story in this video but my three-year-old was a bit scared of this one (unusual for Veggie Tales). The morale is great, as usual.
