Shark Goes to the Dentist

The Adventures of Catarina: The Caterpillar

Being beautiful is all about feeling beautiful.

Little Catarina is a sweet caterpillar with one tiny little flaw: She has no reflection. She can’t help it. This is how she was born.

Being different comes with some difficulties. Although her classmates at CaterSchool call her names sometimes and make her feel like she doesn’t fit in, no one finds her missing reflection a bigger problem than Catarina herself.

She just wishes she could see what she really looks like, what her family and friends see when they look at her…

But what if she isn’t beautiful? What if her reflection is disappointing? How will she ever show her face again in the Butterfly Kingdom?

Join Catarina as she goes on a journey of self-doubt, kindness, and self-discovery and finds out what really makes her beautiful: her big, tender heart.

The Adventures of Kookaburra Kitty (and Her Animal Friends)

Kookaburra Kitty is a warm and simple-hearted, kind and loveable child-minder-carer, who lives alongside her animal friends in their courtyard. Joey, the marmoset, is her ‘right arm’ and helps her out with the junior children. After all, he is the eldest and most responsible. You are always most welcome to step inside (but please remember to wipe your feet first!) and join them as guests in their many fun-filled selected variety of adventures.

The Adventures of Sydney and Marvin

Seagulls are much-maligned creatures. The general public regard them as a nuisance, feral delinquents and low-life scavengers, prone to being aggressive for no apparent reason. Only vultures, it seems, compete at the same social level. Yet the truth is that if you take the time to observe them, they have remarkable qualities for small birds.

They are monogamous and rarely separate from their mate. They’re great swimmers with the rare ability to drink seawater. They’re also highly intelligent, communicative, and can continue to learn new skills, retain it, and also pass them on to others.

Just watch them break open a mussel, or collectively stamp their feet in a farmer’s field to attract the worms. Farmers love them as they keep the insect population under control. Faces they can recognise too. They will eat practically anything available, acting as roaming dustmen. They are such skilled aviators they can extract the bacon from a sandwich in mid-flight.

If they attack, it is normally because people are too close to their chicks. People shouldn’t shoo them away. All that is needed is a hard stare to keep them at bay. But beware; they may use this as a decoy for another to blindside you! Large birds of prey are their only enemy.

Treated respectfully they will interact, and not just for food!

The Animal Tea Party

Have you ever wondered what the jungle animals do when the television cameras aren’t recording their every move? They PAR-TAY!

However, unlike human parties, the animal party is very organised and polite. No boozy stuff allowed; in fact, they drink tea – but a very special tea. So join us, as we open a rarely seen window onto the jungle once the humans have gone.

Meet the king of the jungle like you have never seen him before. A crocodile and an alligator have an in-depth conversation, while a toucan is concerned that her beak is too bright. Learn about what they eat at these posh dos. A pelican makes a guest appearance under the watchful eye of a gorilla. And, oh yes, Mike the mouse squeaks!

A host of colourful characters that make you laugh and maybe cry as they pass the night away enjoying the Animal Tea-Party.

The Giraffe In A Scarf

Imagine a world where the unlikeliest of characters become friends. Imagine them welcoming a total stranger into their company. Imagine them learning unlikely skills with varying degrees of success to help their new companion to adjust to his new surroundings. This is what happens when young Sauté the giraffe finds himself all alone and is befriended by the Gravy Gang.

The Grumpy Squirrel

Why is the little red squirrel so grumpy? Everything had been carefully planned, or so he thought. Much of the autumn had been spent burying his nuts around his beautiful garden ready to be collected once winter arrived. But now winter was here and large ‘things’ had appeared in the garden, a pirate ship, a teepee, a fairy village, a tree house and a huge swing that were now hiding where his precious nuts had been buried. What’s more, whenever he ventured out to search for his collection of nuts, other animals were there to scare him away. He couldn’t understand where they had come from, a fox, a dog, a cat and a very scary owl all tried to catch him. How can he find his buried treasure trove of nuts without becoming supper for one of these wild animals?

The Little Turtle Who Couldn't Swim

Finkles is a little baby turtle with a big heart but a fear of the ocean. Danger appears on the beach, but with the help of her big brother, Wilf, can she overcome her fears and self-doubt and safely find her mummy?

The Rats, the Cat and the Thieves

Miranda warned Auto as she put on her apron, “I will give you away.”

Miranda threatened to send Auto, a Siamese cat, away after she wrongly accused him of stealing food at night. He needed assistance because he couldn’t possibly look into the situation on his own.

Who will help him? He made the decision to approach his foes, the rats, for assistance in clearing his name because he had no idea who had stolen the food. When she threatened to give him away, Miranda meant it seriously. Auto is running out of time because food has been stolen three days in a row and the thief left the kitchen floor dirty.

Are the rats going to believe Auto’s story? Why should the rats help an adversary? What if he harms them? How will Auto convince them that he is telling the truth? Will Auto and the rats put the past behind them and look into the situation? Or, will the rats simply ignore Auto’s pleading for assistance and mind their own business?
