    Goofus and Gallant have been working hard at making their very own video game in the computer lab, and pretty soon they’re enlisted to make a video for the school website. Easy…right? Except it’s about web etiquette, and there are LOTS of rules to follow. Can Goofus and Gallant work together to make a great video, or will they end up breaking the rules before they even begin?

    It’s Gigi’s birthday and she’s so excited for her party - there’s a photo booth, a never-ending dodgeball game, and a puppy petting zoo. And of course, her older brothers Goofus and Gallant, who are excited to give Gigi their presents. Goofus is also excited to eat all the delicious party food, including brownies and cotton candy! Until he starts to feel sick….

    Goofus, Gallant, and Gigi are staying with their favorite aunt and uncle while their parents away, and they just know the weekend is going to be tons of fun - full of shepherd’s pie, outdoor movie night, a lemonade stand, and more! But the rules at Aunt Nettie and Uncle Ned’s are different than they are at home, and Goofus keeps forgetting the most important rule of all. Will his impulsiveness ruin the weekend, or will he learn to slow things down?

About the Scriptwriters

Greg and Pinch Lee are the husband and wife team behind Captain Fun Productions. They first met in the early ‘90s while working together on the Peabody and Emmy award-winning PBS children’s TV show Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? Greg was smitten immediately. Pinch was also smitten though much, much…MUCH later, and still refuses to say exactly when it finally happened for her (but it DID eventually happen).
With their combined talents in writing, design, voice over, producing, editing, production coordination, team management, acting, hosting, and song writing, Pinch and Greg have managed to stay busy over the years creating all kinds of content for TV, film and publishing. Their most recent co-creative adventures have led them to work with Illumination Entertainment, Highlights Magazine, Audible, and GoNoodle.

Gallant is much smarter than Goofus who doesn’t pay much attention to the world around him.

My seven year old son loves it! He has listened to each episode multiple times. It’s easy to know which is Goofus and which is Gallant based on their voices. The stories are cute and have good messages. My son enjoys them so much he asked how he could get more. We’re bummed it’s only going to run through until the end of the month.

Enjoyable for kiddos

I started reading Highlights back in the 60's and I still read them when I go to hospitals, such a great way for young children to learn and grow up with, should be mandatory for all kids as part of life education

Classic

I'm giving this top scores because of how much my 5.5 yr olds love it. I have been looking for something like this for a while, a multi person scripted story like old timey radio. We've listened to all 8 of the episodes to date and I love that so far a new story has been released every week. " I " don't love the music, especially the song they sing at the end, but the twins aren't bothered by it. The only thing I know that compares to it in terms of quality is the Adventures in Odyssey which is a Christian drama series.

My 5.5 year old twins love these stories.
