Whenever there's a problem in the wondrous world of the Rainbow Kingdom, there's one person everyone can count on to save the day – True! TRUE AND THE RAINBOW KINGDOM follows an intelligent and fearless heroine, 8-year-old True, and her hilarious best friend Bartleby the cat, as they come to the rescue of Rainbow City’s whimsical citizens. True is the only one that can unleash the power of the Magical Wishes from the Wishing Tree in order to set things right and keep all the residents in the Kingdom safe.
Each 22-minute episode of the animated series tailored to a preschool audience is packed with comedy that will delight boys and girls alike, while empowering them as they help True solve problems and overcome challenges. In the series premiere episodes titled “Big Mossy Mess” and “Wishing Heart Hollow,” Bartleby brings home some special Zazoony Moss and it suddenly starts to grow like crazy! It’s now up to True to stop its spread before the moss covers the entire Rainbow Kingdom. Later, with the help of some new friends, True must rescue the Rainbow King who gets trapped in the Wishing Heart Hollow cave.
TRUE AND THE RAINBOW KINGDOM is produced by Guru Studio, based on the artwork of FriendsWithYou and is executive produced by world renowned artist Pharrell Williams. To learn more, go to www.discoveryfamilychannel.com, on Facebook at www.facebook.com/DiscFamily and on Twitter @DiscoveryFamily.
