This tape features two episodes of the cartoon series. The first, "While the Cat's Away," is about two brothers who are looking for something to steal to get the money for a bike they want. When they enter a creepy old house, they have no idea that its' filled with werewolves, vampires, and zombies. Several scenes from this episode comprise the opening sequence of the show. The second feature, "Nature," deals with two other brothers who go on a family picnic and torture insects. But when thier magnafying glass backfires, they learn the perils of being a bug--especially when they confront thier baby sister. Nice animation and stories with a moral--great for children!

I remember watching this series in the early 90's when ever I could get the channel to come in good enough so I could see it. Luckily, a few years ago I was able to find these on VHS and bought three of them. This being one of the three.

Overall, these stories are great with a moral that the first episode teaches crime doesn't pay while the second, and my favorite, teaches to respect nature. With that said, I really do enjoy both of the episodes. I'm just glad I still have them so I can watch it anytime I want. Hoping for the day when they release this on DVD.
