In a pre-schooler's world, where "big" often rules over "small", Little Red Tractor is someone children will instantly empathise with because like them, he proves that you don't have to be the biggest to be the best! Little Red Tractor represents classic pre-school entertainment with all of the elements of an evergreen property - fun, timeless storylines that capture children's imaginations (e.g. tractor races, kite flying, berry picking, harvesting); funny, clever and brave role models that children can easily relate to; appealing themes and settings (vehicles, farming, growing, animals); interactive content with "toots", "beeps", "honks" and a catchy, hand-clapping theme tune!

The Little Red Tractor lives on Gosling Farm with a young farmer called Stan. The farm is of modest size, but full of rural charm. The local farming community is made up of colorful characters including larger, more powerful machines than Little Red Tractor, but our hero relies on his wit and determination to compete in the everyday challenge they face.

In these fun farmyard adventures, we see Little Red Tractor use his quick thinking to beat Big Blue in a race, save the day when Nipper falls down a mineshaft and rescue Stumpy when he is left stranded on the barn roof in a blizzard. But whatever the challenge, Little Red Tractor is always ready to help his friends with an excited whiz of his starting handle and cheerful "toot toot"!
