The Journal Gift Set w/ Complete Season 1 DVD was a steal! Just the discs had a price slightly under $50, while this set was less than $40.00. From everything I can see, the DVD sets are exactly the same. My little girl loves the journal, and is having a great time "writing" in it. (Too bad by the time she "gets" this show other than the music, she won't be able to watch again with us until she's a teenager...). All in all a great value for a tremendously valuable television show. I knew we had to have this for the archive.
