Garden Galaxies A group of tiny alien explorers land their
spaceship in a small backyard. Being as diminutive as they are, their UFO existence
has gone largely unnoticed by the world, well, by humans, anyway. Garden
inhabitants like ladybugs, ants and woodlice, on the other hand, seem to be paying
attention. The latest in a long line of intergalactic gallopers, the wee aliens are extremely
curious about the most magical, lush world they have ever seen and want to learn everything.
Every day they set out into their new garden galaxy on a series of misadventures that wind up
chock full of slapstick-driven laughs.
Oh Brave Knight (and I!) This series stars an accidentprone
knight and his loyal and clever young squire. The tale unfolds with
an unfortunate mix-up at the Knights and Quests Department that
sees Henri, the realm’s clumsiest knight, assigned to carry out the
most diffi cult quests in the kingdom. Obviously completing
these missions is an uphill battle for such a bumbler. However,
his squire Jimmy is possessed by boundless ingenuity,
and it’s his unfailing enthusiam that propels
Henri forward. And sometimes, the boy’s crazy
ideas end up saving the day.
