Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Garrison the Garbage Truck
P. J. Parisi · 2022
65/100
👎 Skip It
A sweet, faith-forward toddler series built around a charming truck character, with the Fruit of the Spirit woven into each story. It serves its target audience — Christian families with little ones — well enough, but the didactic structure is formulaic and mainstream distribution is limited. For faith-based households it is a fine shelf addition; outside that niche there is little to distinguish it.
