Rated A for Awesome series Review
"This short-form Disney show is packed with comedy that kids will love, as well as worthwhile messages about friendship, teamwork, and staying true to yourself. In each story, Les and his friends must put their heads together to solve a problem that will ring true with kids, from dealing with irritating classmates to keeping cool on a hot summer day. While their methods are a stretch even for kids' big imaginations, their oversized adventures are all kinds of fun for viewers.
One of the best aspects of this cartoon is how it portrays friendship among its young characters, each of whom brings unique ideas and traits to the group and receives recognition for them. Far from skipping over meaningful dialogue, the kids acknowledge one another's good ideas, apologize when they've been unkind, and encourage each other to appreciate their unique qualities. There's some bathroom humor (visible butt cracks and mention of pooping, for instance) to entice kids, but even that does little to detract from the show's positive social messages." 4/5 Common Sense Media, recommended age 6+
