Toronto, Canada -- 9 Story Media Group announced that it has licensed 94 half hours of children’s content to U.S. Hispanic broadcast network MundoFox. Under the deal, the Fox International Channels and RCN owned network has acquired three 9 Story properties, including Wibbly Pig (52 x 11’), Finding Stuff Out (42 x 22’) and Artzooka! (26 x 22’).
Based on Mick Inkpen’s multi-award winning literary franchise (over 2 million books sold), Wibbly Pig features humorous stories about lovable Wibbly, a funny, inquisitive and engaging character who turns the simplest daily tasks and activities into a comedy routine.
Finding Stuff Out is a lively science-oriented series which, instead of imposing adult notions on kids about what they should know, gives them what they want: answers to the questions that matter to them the most!
Blending live action and animation, Artzooka! provides kids with new techniques to create masterpieces out of everyday objects. The host of the show teaches the audience that art is everywhere and that there is an artist in every child!
