- Max Lucado’s Hermie and Friends: Flo the Lyin’ Fly

Max Lucado's Hermie and Friends - Flo the Lyin' Fly featuring the voice talents of Vicki Lawrence, Tim Conway, Don Knotts - it's about ... being truthful
An installment of Max Lucado’s Hermie and Friends Christian kids’ animation, Flo the Lyin’ Fly is a simple story, told with humor that adults can enjoy—but aimed at young children. It’s effectively a retelling of “the boy who cried wolf”, as Flo the Fly (voiced by Vicki Lawrence) gets caught in telling lies, and actually has a short conversation with God about it. She’s given an opportunity to start telling the truth, but turns her back on it when the famous singing group “The WaterBeatles” are going to be coming to the marsh for a concert, and she brags about how she knows them all, etc. Later, after her lie is exposed, she actually does meet the WaterBeatles, but when they are kidnapped by a “fire-breathing dragonfly”, Hermie (voiced by Tim Conway), Wormie (voiced by the late Don Knotts) and the other residents of the marsh don’t believe her. All turns out well, however, and it ends with the WaterBeatles (sung by Third Day) performing a song about the importance of telling the truth. The video actually begins with a short vignette of Hermie and Wormie, when Hermie unintentionally causes a small flood, reinforcing the same lesson.

Hermie and Friends: Flo the Lyin’ Fly is a very good children’s film, that I enjoyed watching with my children, although only the youngest truly enjoyed it—the others are pre-teen, and simply too old to enjoy it. I recommend it to parents of younger children.
