The storylines were adapted from Gourounas’ series of popular children’s books published by L'Atelier du Poisson Soluble.

Producer & Head of International at Dandelooo, Emmanuèle Pétry, commented: “Eesha is one of the most sensitive and funny penguin girls I’ve ever met. We are extremely honored that our longtime friends at TeamTO have chosen Dandelooo as their global distributor. Thanks to the wonderful talent of Loic Espuche, we believe this new enchanting series will become a huge hit”.

Corinne Kouper, SVP Development and Production at TeamTO added: “I especially love how this show highlights the importance of creativity, patience and flexibility in the face of change - as well as its amazingly colourful and fun animation. And of course, we are beyond happy that Dandelooo will be introducing EESHA to the world at MIPCOM."
