Wishbone's take on Crane's 'The Red Badge of Courage" December 7, 2001
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
In "The Terrified Terrier" there is a test of the character of Joe Talbot (Jordan Wall) when he starts hanging out with the high school basketball star and other older, more popular kids. Will he forget about Samantha (Christie Abbott) and David (Adam Springfield)? Not if Wishbone (voice of Larry Brantley) has anything to say about it. This time around the world's most literate Jack Russell Terrier draws his inspiration from Stephen Crane's "The Red Badge of Courage," where Henry Fleming faces a similar test of his character on a battlefield during the American Civil War. Wishbone gets to play Henry and while the parallel between Henry fleeing run the battlefield and Joe being relegated to a gofer is a bit strained, you have to admire the use of great literature to serve as the moral for the story. For teachers interested in using this video as a teaching aid in class, there are even lesson plans for "Terrified Terrier" in the T-Bone section of the Wishbone web site. But I think it is possible to take a more direct route with students for them to be interested in reading Crane's novel. The question of what would YOU do the first time you were on a battlefield is not that much of a stretch for most kids.
 Red Badge of Courage July 25, 2000

Terrified Terrier is a twist on the classic The Red Badge of Courage. It also has a story following Wishbone and his humans. Although it is one of my least favorites, it teaches a very good message of staying true to your real friends, and it introduces younger kids to yet another classic book. Kids will love Wishbone and his hilarious show!
