Another Go Diego Go! DVD hits the stores tomorrow with 3 new-to-DVD episodes.  My kids were completely thrilled to see this DVD and were really glad they got to view it before its release. 

In Diego’s Ultimate Rescue League, Diego and his friends test their rescuing skills as they travel underwater and up tall mountains to save animals.   These action-packed expeditions take preschoolers in a virtual around the world experience.  They can join Diego, his friends and the Animal Rescue League undergo a test to earn a World Rescuers’ patch; help Bottlenose become an ocean animal rescuer by saving the ocean animals from a tsunami-like wave and a devastating oil spill; and climb a treacherous mountain to reunite Prince Vicuña with his parents.  The DVD includes the double-length Ultimate Rescue League episode, in addition to two more action-packed Diego episodes. 

 Go, Diego, Go!: Diego’s Ultimate Rescue League –  a little about the episodes:

Diego’s International Rescue League

Diego has assembled an elite team of world rescuers to endure a challenging test that will earn them their World Rescuers’ patch.  Diego’s team includes Juma – the African desert expert, Shanti – the Indian forest expert, Burgin – an expert diver and surfer from Borneo, Yang – a panda rescuer who can climb up the tallest and most treacherous mountains of China, and team captain Diego – who’s rescued animals from every corner of the globe – even the frozen tundra of Antarctica! The team assembles on Rescue Island, where they must race against the clock in their Rescue-Flyer to identify and return five mystery animal eggs to their respective habitats before time runs out.

Ocean Animal Rescuer

Bottlenose wants to become an ocean animal rescuer just like Diego and Baby Humpback Whale. Bottlenose must swim fast and rescue the baby sea turtles from a giant wave that could devastate the population. Then Diego, Baby Humpback, and Bottlenose must work together to rescue the ocean animals from a dangerous oil-spill before it gets too close to their natural habitats.

Diego Rescues Prince Vicuña

Prince Vicuña embarked on an extensive exploration and has yet to return to his parents, the King and Queen, who long for their lost son.  Diego and Messenger Vicuña are quick to develop a plan of action.  Diego and Messenger Vicuña run into some trouble as they realize the Prince is over the mountain, near Puma Pass.  Diego decides to use a special climbing hook and rope to climb up the mountain toward Puma Pass to rescue the Prince.  After a successful rescue, we take the Prince back to Vicuña Valley, and reunite him with his joyful parents.

All in all, I still recommend all the Go Diego Go! DVDs, but this one didn’t interest my little audience as much as some as the others have.  Thus, although a fabulous DVD for preschoolers and young school-age kids, this one gets only 4 out of 5 stars.  But, who knows, your kid may think its worthy of the full 5!

This DVD is available most places on August 31, 201 for a suggested retail price of  $16.99 .  Of course, its usually cheaper at Amazon.com and at some Big Box and warehouse stores.

DVD Running Time:  Approximately 94 Minutes
