"Isadora Moon" Flies into the U.S. on Max: Animated Series Launches January 2

Los Angeles, CA - December 10, 2024 - Get ready for a whimsical adventure as Max announces the U.S. premiere of the enchanting animated series Isadora Moon, set to launch on January 2, 2025. Based on the globally best-selling beloved book series by Harriet Muncaster, Isadora Moon follows the delightful adventures of a half-vampire, half-fairy girl, her friends at human school, and her wider magical family.

Isadora Moon is not your typical child; she embodies the magic of both worlds - embracing the enchantment of fairies and sparkles, as well as the powers of her gothic vampire side. This charming series appeals to children and families alike, showcasing themes of self-acceptance, creativity, and the beauty of being true to oneself.

Harriet Muncaster is the creator, author and illustrator of the Isadora Moon book series, which has sold more than 5 million copies worldwide since launch in 2016 and is available in 42 languages.

"Isadora Moon reminds us that feeling different is not just okay - it's what makes us truly special. She may not fly as fast as other vampire children, or do magic as well as the fairy kids, but her unique blend of qualities is what sets her apart," said Muncaster. "Just like Isadora, we all have our own special magic within us. Embrace your individuality, for there is one thing you can do better than anyone else in the world: be yourself!"

"Isadora Moon is more than just a story about a half-vampire, half-fairy girl; it's a celebration of individuality and self-acceptance that resonates profoundly with children today," adds Deborah Thorpe, showrunner of the 2D animated series created and produced by her company Kelebek Media. "This series will transport audiences to fantastical new places. Like Harriet we hope to inspire children everywhere to feel comfortable and proud of being their authentic selves."

Isadora Moon will premiere with 12 episodes (one 22-minutes, the remaining eleven 11-minutes) featuring a talented cast of voice actors who bring Isadora and her friends to life, alongside a creative team dedicated to preserving the magic of the original books alongside bringing new stories to the screen. Each episode takes viewers on a journey filled with fun, friendship, and a sprinkle of magic, perfect for sparking the imaginations of young viewers.

Kids and families across the U.S. can join Isadora on her exciting adventures starting Thursday, January 2, as she navigates her enchanting world, meets new friends, and discovers the power of being herself.

Kelebek Media developed and produced the 2D animated series for children ages 4 to 7.
