Raven The Little Rascal - The Series

For the little raven and his friends, life is like a never-ending summer vacation. Every day brings new adventures and one person in particular is responsible for that: the little raven Sock. Whether treasure hunts, knight games or round flights in a flying nest – Sock’s creativity and stubbornness always lead to dramatic, funny and exciting situations. With his courage, wit and unconventional solutions, the cheeky raven is a master at solving problems that wouldn’t exist without him.

The animated series is based on the children’s book series DER KLEINE RABE SOCKE by Nele Moost (text) and Annet Rudolph (illustrations), published by Thienemann-Esslinger Verlag.
