Kelebek Media Sinks Its Teeth in "Isadora Moon" Series
Based in the UK. Indie Kelebek Media is developing a new animated series based on Harriet Muncaster's popular Isadora Moon series, published by Oxford Univ. Press. The 2 x 52 11D animated show will focus on the adventures of a girl whose mother is a fairy and her father is a vampire, and it's a little of both! The series will feature fairies, vampires, witches and wizards, all of whom are part of Isadora's vast family of magical beings and will promote self-acceptance, diversity and fear of being different from others.
"I fell in love with Isadora Moon the moment I saw it, "says Kelebek Media founder Deborah Thorpe." The books are beautifully illustrated and the stories are full of charm, heart and humor. I am delighted that Harriet has entrusted us with the creation of these magnificent books, loved by their audience, in an animated series. Isadora's unique and magical cultural heritage makes her universally identifiable so that anyone anywhere in the world can see themselves reflected in it. I think it's part of its great global appeal with our target audience. "
Adds author and illustrator Harriet Muncaster, "I'm so excited for Isadora to come alive in an animated way! I love everything the extraordinarily talented team at Kelebek has done so far and I know they will make Isadora shine on the screen."
Isadora Moon The books have sold over 1,2 million copies worldwide in 30 different languages and the character has a huge following worldwide among children aged 5 to 9. This year in the UK, 300 booksellers and libraries attended an "Isadora Moon Day" in February. The 13th The book in the series will be released in October 2020.
