GREAT SONGS!     GREAT STORIES!     GREAT VALUES!     GREAT PUPPETS!

This delightful video series teaches young children valuable lessons that will help them get along well, work out conflicts fairly and peacefully, and treat each other with respect. Funny, entertaining, and emotionally engaging, these videos combine puppetry, real children, music, and fanciful visual elements - a sure hit with young kids.

In each episode, Groark, an affable, childlike dragon, gets into a tense situation with some of his friends. After he discusses the problem with his adult companion (ventriloquist Randel McGee) and a group of real elementary school children, he applies what he has learned and succeeds in bringing about a peaceful, positive resolution.

Each video in the series is approximately 28 minutes in length. A printable teaching guide is included on each DVD providing discussion questions, writing assignments, and fun group learning activities.
