Production notes
Cutout animation.
The Yellow Giraffe series are attractive, multicultural and full of poetry and delightful music. These enchanting stories are inspired by famous poems by such writers as William Blake, Rainer Maria Rilke and W.B. Yeats, and are set in different cultures and social environments.
The characters are eye-catching, simple and appeal to everyone. Each episode is humorous and surprising, and deals with feelings and experiences familiar to children. The themes are important emotional items that occur in the everyday life of each child: freedom, love, death, friendship, family life, jealousy, sorrow and happiness.
