North American licensing program will encompass toys, games, travel, apparel, room décor and more for the preschool series.

Cottonwood Media has appointed Spotlight Licensing and Brand Management to represent its animated preschool series “The Ollie & Moon Show” for licensing in the U.S. and Canada.

“The ‘Ollie & Moon Show’ is an adorable animated property that makes the idea of world travel fun and accessible to kids,” says Carole Postal, president, Spotlight Licensing. “We are excited to be working with Cottonwood Media to make this fantastic brand available for licensing across a wide range of children’s toys, games, travel goods, apps, apparel, accessories, room décor and other products involving children and their real or imaginary travels.”

“The Ollie & Moon Show” stars two cute and kooky cats–the carefree, adventurous Moon along with the practical, by-the-book Ollie–who have a knack for spinning everyday preschool life into zany globetrotting adventures. The series is based on the Ollie & Moon books and aims to celebrate unusual friendships, curiosity and appreciating the differences in everyone.

“The fact that we already have such a diverse a global network in more than 160 territories is a wonderful testament to the universal appeal of this original property,” says David Michel, chief executive officer, Cottonwood Media. “We are sure that the success we have had in adapting ‘Ollie & Moon’s’ tremendous publishing success to television will translate into a very exciting licensing strategy.”

Spotlight Licensing will be at booth #A196 during Licensing Expo, May 23-25, in Las Vegas, Nev.
