WONDEROOS is an animated preschool series about a lovable ensemble of animal friends who wonder what to do when faced with relatable preschool "firsts". They live in the same apartment building in the kid-run world of The Little Big City (on " Street" of course!) and work out kid-led solutions to their kid-led dramas through trial and error. It's a funny, thoughtful and musical HOW-TO guide for preschoolers 2-4 and their parents.

Description
Kiki is 4yo, but open to younger-sounding children 4-9 (ish). This role is female, but open to all genders. Kiki has a BRITISH ACCENT and we are only looking for talent with british accents for this role. Note: British does not necessarity mean Caucasian.

When we first meet Kiki, we learn that she didn't always live in Little Big City, and is the newest wonderoo to have moved into the apartment building. This opens up storytelling possibilities about moving and making new friends. For the others, it means inviting someone new in to join their play, jealousy when an old best friend is spending more time with the new friend, and so on. Kiki is an optimist and sees the world through Kiki-colored glasses. When everyone else is bummed about a rainstorm, Kiki sees the dancing trees! This creativity especially comes in handy when she's with her new bestie/almost like a brother, Dewey. Dewey is thoughtful and well-intentioned but very clumsy. Luckily, Kiki can turn Dewey's spilled milk into a fun game of puddle-jump, or Dewey's broken toy into a magical wand. Sometimes, Kiki can be a little TOO positive with a tendency to brush her friends’ troubles under the rug. She's learning that it's okay to feel big feelings. With her adorable British accent, we instantly fall in love with this new friend.
