Description:

Life is tough for a fish out of water, but in the Kingdom of Goode, landlocked fish provide an amusing metaphor for A Tale of Patience. This 35-minute animated parable follows a fish named Phoose and his scaly cohorts as they cope with a nasty drought. Somehow, these ingenious friends manage to "swim" above the broiling desert sands, and complain about their plight in Scottish, Jamaican, and New Jersey accents. Their shared impatience almost leads to their demise. But a friendly flea, well schooled in meteorology, successfully begs them to exercise patience. It's an odd tale with a valuable message, made palpable by layers of bold, hypnotic animation and rousing musical numbers. Preschoolers--who may or may not get the point--find this wild blend of colors, shapes, and sounds oh so enthralling. This video comes from So Smart! Productions, the creative force behind such award-winning child development shows as Musical Instruments and Colors. --Liane Thomas
