Meet the Merry Brook Friends
Wally is the spectacled donkey in his familiar vest. He can be a little bit grumpy, but he is part of the heart of Merry Brook.
Mabel is the mare in her hat and scarf who joins Wally on the barn porch as the friends' stories are shared.
Gus is an inquisitive young calf in his cap, learning about friendship, courage, and taking the first step.
Callie is a thoughtful lamb with her bow and glasses, ready to notice when a friend needs help.
Ella is a kind young filly in her scarf who learns about teamwork, listening, and making room for everyone.
Dottie brings her dotted tutu and her own personality to the Merry Brook group.
Pip is the little duckling who joins the friends on their adventures.
Tansy is a tiny chick with a brave voice.
Big hearts, helping hands, together everyone stands. Step by step, friend by friend, kindness wins in the end.
Stories for everyday childhood moments
Merry Brook Friends explores friendship, starting school, trying something new, teamwork, gratitude, and belonging through familiar characters children can return to from story to story.
