A multi-layered tale of two very different pigs that you will find yourself snickering at . . . yet you will find very thought-provoking. Sidney & Norman uses the simple context of two pigs living next door to each other to communicate a profound truth about how we judge each other and often judge ourselves. On the surface, Sidney & Norman appears to be a picture book that will entertain kids. But this story has deeply moved adult audiences in informal readings, leading to deep-thinking discussions.

When computer-animator Phil Vischer sat down to create delightfully weird characters to teach Christian values to kids, Bob the tomato and a Larry the cucumber were born. VeggieTales revolutionized Christian filmmaking, sold more than 40 million videos and placed faith-filled stories in one of three American households with young children. Phil continues to pursue new ways to integrate faith and storytelling. Phil lives with his wife Lisa, their three kids, and one dog in Illinois.
VeggieTales creator Phil Vischer narrates his childrenÕs story. VischerÕs performance is a good match for his whimsical fantasy of the plight of Sidney and Norman, two very different pigs who receive an invitation to meet God. Norman, fastidious and punctual, looks down upon his neighbor, Sidney, who struggles with being neat and staying on schedule. This amusing tale for children teaches lessons on pride and humility at the same time that it entertains. VischerÕs voice and the background music hold oneÕs attention. At the end of the story he adds a brief devotional on the importance of loving our neighbors. VischerÕs talent is evident in both story and narration.
