5.0 out of 5 stars 4 year lod twins love this , August 14, 2007

By	Michele Dietrick - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Teacher from the Black Lagoon... and More Slightly Scary Stories (Scholastic Video Collection) (DVD)

My twins who are 4 years old love this dvd. It is indeed only slightly scary and just perfect for them. They have so much fun watching it and will discuss it and make up stories including the charters in the dvd when it is over. This is wonderful for their imagination.They go on binges and will want to watch this over and over for maybe 3 days in a row then forget it for two or three weeks then want to watch it again for 3 days in a row.

5.0 out of 5 stars My 4 year old loves it, July 3, 2007

By	Jennifda "Too Many DVDs To Count" (Celebration, FL, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Teacher from the Black Lagoon... and More Slightly Scary Stories (Scholastic Video Collection) (DVD)

The stories are slightly scarey. Nothing actually bad happens to any of the characters. There are some creepy images (eg, fence and beds made out of bones), but good always prevails. Will be especially loved around Halloween.

2.0 out of 5 stars Just Too Much for the Youngest Set - a review of Teacher ex the Black Lagoon, June 28, 2005

By	Pam Tee "Harmless" - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This review is from: The Teacher from the Black Lagoon... and More Slightly Scary Stories (Scholastic Video Collection) (DVD)

This is a scary Scholastic. Too scary for my 3 and 5 year-olds. Having gotten it at the library (which we do before purchasing) we didn't even watch it through once before returning it.

The principle problem is the biting off of heads and other body parts. Perhaps funny from an older kid point of view, it is just too weird and inappropriate, imho, for younger children who won't see the humor.

For an indepth understanding of the story, check out the reviews of the book.
