***For children with vivid imaginations this collection might scare them.*** It's more on the Intense side and it does have villians, fires and a trapped person who is rescued at the last minute. However, it is still very good.

I haven't heard one of their CDs yet that the whole family didn't love. This release contains the first story that had the Imagination Station in it - about an unbelieving boy who goes back to the time of Jesus entering Jerusalem and through to the crucifixion. It is incredible storytelling.

I highly recommend all of their CDs. The DVDs are pretty darn good to.
