Boutique London-based distributor Cake is set to handle international distribution for Woozle & Pip, a popular book-based preschool series from the Netherlands.

Created by the property’s global rights holder, Amsterdam-based The Dreamchaser Company, and co-produced by KRO NCRV Youth, Woozle & Pip is a 52 x five-minute, 2D hand-illustrated animated series that follows the adventures of two lovable dogs and their friends as they live, learn and play in a magical garden.

The series is based on a bestselling children’s book series of the same name from the late Dutch author Guusje Nederhorst.

Since the first book was published in 2005, more than 1.5 million books have been sold in the Netherlands alone, and the brand has expanded to TV, music, toys, apps and a theater show.

The TV series has earned top ratings in the Netherlands, as well as Germany, Austria and Switzerland on WDR and KiKA since debuting in May 2014.

Cake’s latest partnership further strengthens its sales growth which includes recent deals for Angelo Rules and Total Drama, and new acquisitions Clay Kids and Space Racers.
