A quiet fishing party is interrupted when something unexpected bites on the line.

Little Critter and his class go to the Sea Park, where they see all kinds of fish and other ocean animals.

All the many things a young child can do independently are demonstrated, (tying shoes, riding a bike, kicking a ball), but there is one thing one cannot do alone.

When Little Critter feels just a little sick, Mom lets him stay home from school. But between visiting the doctor and staying inside all day, missing school is not what Little Critter expected.

Trying to be good for Christmas without bungling everything up is difficult.

Little Critter is frustrated with his small size and he tries to find ways to make himself grow, until his grandfather shows him that being bigger is not always better.

A little boy really wants a dog, but instead he gets dinosaurs.

At bedtime a boy confronts the nightmare in his closet and finds him not so terrifying after all.

The Little Critter enjoys some traditional Easter activities with his parents and his little sister.
