Cheap Jay Jay the Jet Plane - Supersonic Pals (DVD) (Chuck Cirino) Price

Jay Jay and his buddies are the American aerial equivalent of England's Thomas the Tank Engine and cohorts: they have jobs to do, experience adventures along the way, and always learn valuable lessons in cooperation. The American sensibility is most apparent in Brenda Blue, Tarrytown Airport's mechanic/manager. Her role as a parent figure is more overt than Sir Topham Hat's of the British Thomas program, and she has "Think About Moments" in which she explains concepts like gravity and weather. Another difference is the kiddie voices belonging to the planes, helicopter, and tow truck. This compilation of the PBS series offers five 11-minute segments, featuring stories in which Oscar the biplane attempts to re-create a triumph from his stunt-plane days, the team prepares for Brenda's mom's arrival on Mother's Day, and the little propeller plane Snuffy tries to decide what birthday gift would be most useful. Ages 2 to 6. --Kimberly Heinrichs
