Fergus and Delilah

Fergus and Delilah follows a little girl through her first day at a new park. She slides, climbs, swings and dances, making friends with a variety of different children from the unique to the kid who doesn’t speak. However, despite her best efforts, one boy keeps shooing her away. Will Delilah be able to overcome their differences and make friends with the boy who always plays alone?

Fergus and Delilah shows children that everyone is ‘wired’ a little bit differently and no one should have to play alone at the park.

The Characters:

• Fergus loves spinning in the park and giving people ‘knuckles’.  He likes to chase his dog around but most of all he likes to try and feed his two chickens rocks.  Fergus has some particular tastes when it comes to food.  He would much prefer eating cabbage and carrots than cake and croissants.  Fergus’ wires are a little bit different to most people but maybe that is why he seems to know an interesting fact for almost everything!
• Delilah is a smiley, inquisitive girl who loves having tea parties with her dolls, eating pink cupcakes and mushy cream cheese sandwiches.  She considers herself an expert at flying kites and she is not too bad on the monkey bars either.
