The stories of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie have been read and loved by Australian families from one generation to the next and many Australian adults fondly recall reading the famous Gumnut Classics during their own childhood.

In this ABC dramatisation, all the delightful characters are brought to life in the stories of the intrepid Gumnuts and their good friends, charming Mr Lizard and Little Ragged Blossom, who encounter the terrifying Bad Banksia Men and the wicked Mrs Snake.
