Tommy the Little Dragon is an animated TV series for children from 2 to 4 years old. The length of each episode, 5 min 30 sec, has been chosen so that the parents can stop a child's viewing at any time without any stress. There is no offense or antagonists in the series's world, so parents can safely leave their children in front of the TV and be sure that Tommy the Little Dragon will teach only good things. The series aims to convey a message about the importance of the family values, love for our close people, caring about the young ones and helping the grown-ups and seniors. Each episode is based on a common situation, which children know quite well, so that they can review this situation from a different point of view and find a solution in an easy and playful way.
The main purpose of the series is to persuade younger children to practise simple actions, like tying shoelaces or eating soup. Tommy is a toy dragon who came to life (as seen in the intro), who teaches Andy and Mandy(two pandas) important lessons by transporting them into different cities or countries (i.e, Stubbornstan or Bulliville), in which the people living there do the same thing that Andy or Mandy have done. Tommy Andy and Mandy are blue and red, which impacts on their behavior, because when Andy is upset, he often sobs(in which blue represents sadness) and when Mandy is upset, she often complains(in which red represents frustration and anger). Tommy is not allowed to come to life infront of Andy and Mandy's parents, and neither can Dori(Tommy's robot and female counterpart), as it is the biggest secret in the world of toys.
