This is the ninth Veggie Tales video and each new Veggie Tales story is introduced by Bob (a tomato) and Larry (a cucumber). Larry has a new jeep but isn't satisfied, and wants "just one more thing to make me really happy." To teach Larry about being content with what you have, we hear the story of Madame Blueberry, who, like Larry is not satisfied with what she has. A new shop, the Stuffmart, has just opened, and she goes along to buy everything she needs to make her happy. But along the way she sees a little boy and a little girl who are happy despite their poverty. When she discovers that what makes them different is a happy heart, she asks - "A happy heart, what aisle is that on?" Madame Blueberry is told that you can't buy a happy heart, but that it comes from being thankful. A thankful heart is a happy heart. Like the other Veggie Tales videos, this is one that children will love; I asked my eight year old what he thought of it - "I give it nine out of 10 for education and nine out of 10 for fun." I've also discovered that, like Telly Tubbies, Veggie Tales have a following in older teenage audiences! Fairly wacky humour, a good story and some good songs make for a very watchable video.
