VeggieTales CD
For those of you looking for a fantastic gift for a young child, I highly recommend a personalized VeggieTales CD.

I first heard the VeggieTales 'Interactive Learning' CD when I was visiting my family in Missouri. One of my brothers had bought the CD for his daughter. Once I heard the tracks 'God is so Good' and 'The Thankfulness Song', I became intent on purchasing a copy for my son Caleb (due in early Feb, btw). I suspect that this is the first of many VeggieTales items to be purchased for the Taylor household.
