AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Two human children, Alex and Zoe, find themselves transported, via a magical library, to a world of anthropomorphised animals: Animalia. They team up with G'Bubu (a gorilla) and Iggy (an iguana) to save Animalia from the depredations of a series of villains.
Though the program is an Australian production, all script-writers are American, and all are specialist animation script-writers.
Notes

'You may discover, if you look
'Beyond the spell of written words,
'A hidden land of beasts and birds.
