I was recently sent the VeggieTales DVD, “Princess and the Pop Star” A Story of Trading Places, to review. Last weekend, I popped it in for the kids to watch with us. This family-friendly title teaches an important lesson about being yourself. Princess Poppyseed, lives on her family’s farm and never has time to herself. She has a big family and she longs for the life of Pop Star Vanna Banana. Meanwhile Vanna is upset with how lonely her life is and how she wishes she had brothers and sisters. On a chance meeting at the playground Vanna and Princess change places and the girls both realize, that the life that they longed for doesn’t fulfill all their dreams. The girls learn that the life that God gave them is the life that they were uniquely and lovingly designed for.
DVD features the new song, “You Never Are” from Dove Award winning Female Vocalist of the Year, Francesca Battistelli.
This is such a great DVD that tells the story that the grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence. My boys loved all the singing and cute characters. As a parent I like that this DVD shows kids that just because another person’s life seems better, does not mean it is. The songs and the story are entertaining and it is a great family movie.
