Synopses

Stick Man

Stick Man lives in the family tree with his Stick Lady Love and their three stick children.

Zog

Zog is the keenest dragon in school, but also the most accident-prone, flying into trees and even setting his own wing on fire. A mysterious little girl comes by and patches up his bumps and bruises.

Superworm

Superworm is super-long and super-strong. Watch him wiggle and see him squirm, with a cheer for Superworm.

Tiddler

The smallest fish can tell the tallest tales, including an excuse about being captured by a squid and rescued by a turtle on the way to school.

The Highway Rat

The Highway Rat demands buns, biscuits and chocolate eclairs, and never shares. As he gallops along the highway stealing food, life is not safe for the other animals.

Tabby McTat

Tabby McTat is described as purr-fectly happy, singing along all day with Fred the busker and the old guitar.

Zog and the Flying Doctors

The Flying Doctors are a dragon, knight and girl: Gadabout the Great, Zog and Princess Pearl. They fly around in their ‘air ambulance’, tending a sunburnt mermaid, a distressed unicorn and a sneezy lion.

The Ugly Five

The story introduces the ugliest animals on the savannah, described as gangly, warty, bumpy, bristly, spotty and stinky. They call themselves the ugly five, and everyone flees when they arrive.

Scarecrows Wedding

Two scarecrows plan the perfect wedding and set off to find everything on their list. Reginald Rake almost ruins their special day, and Harry O’Hay must become a hero before he and Betty O’Barley can have the wedding they want.
