'''''Maisy''''' is a British preschool animated children's [[television series]] based on the book series of the same name by [[Lucy Cousins]]. The series aired for one season of 26 episodes, with each episode being made up of four segments. It won the [[British Academy Children's Award for Pre-School Animation]] in 2000.
== Plot ==
The show focuses on the lives of Maisy Mouse and her friends. A mellow-voiced narrator narrates the action and communicates with the characters while the animals go through their paces communicating through unusual noises rather than traditional language.
The characters are meant to be between four and nine years old. The narrator, however, can understand them easily because he is the only one who actually speaks. The animated series keeps the two-dimensional visual style of the books.
== Characters ==
* Maisy is a mouse who lives in an orange house with a red roof. She wears different clothes. She loves to paint and play with her friends.
* Cyril is a squirrel who wears a yellow or green shirt.
* Tallulah is a bird chick who is almost always seen wearing a dress and a bow.
* Charley is a crocodile who loves to eat.
* Eddie is an elephant who is often in settings where he is too big to participate as he is often depicted as being almost animalistic rather than [[anthropomorphic]] in appearance.
==Production==
''Maisy'' was produced by [[King Rollo Films]], [[PolyGram Filmed Entertainment|PolyGram Visual Programming]], and [[Universal Television|Universal Pictures Visual Programming]].{{citation needed|date=January 2023}}
