Clangers - The Meeting

Welcome to the whimsical world of the Clangers, a family of pink mouse-like creatures who dwell on a mysterious blue planet deep in space. Let's meet the inhabitants of this craggy yet charming world. Major Clanger is the father of the family, forever inventing all kinds of curious contraptions. Mother Clanger tends to their home with steady kindness and a comforting nature. Small Clanger, their adventurous son, is eager to explore and make marvellous discoveries, though his curiosity sometimes leads him into mischief. Tiny Clanger, the youngest, has a generous spirit and embraces everyone she meets with open arms. Alongside the Clangers live their friends: the Soup Dragon and her playful Baby Dragon, who live deep underground and provide the Clangers with delicious green soup; the Iron Chicken, the Music Trees, the Froglets, and the gentle Hoots. When unexpected visitors from outer space land on their peaceful planet, the Clangers explore these strange arrivals with curiosity and wonder. Small and Tiny Clanger hear unfamiliar music playing and investigate. The source of the sound comes from trumpet-looking creatures known as Hoots floating on a star. These Hoots land on the Clangers' planet. While Small and Tiny are polite to the visitors, the Hoots are aggressive and pushy. They seem to be looking for the Clangers' other friend Hoot. However, they are angry because he sounds different from them. Tiny Clanger bravely stands up to the invaders by showing how her Hoot friend can sound just like them. Through kindness and bravery, Tiny Clanger defends her friend and makes new friends. These Clangers audiobooks offer a rare opportunity to experience a quiet kind of magic—one where every whistle tells a story, and every crater holds a lesson in friendship, generosity, or wonder. As the Soup Dragon bubbles up her green soup and Tiny and Small venture across their musical world, listeners of all ages are invited to slow down and listen. This special audiobook edition of The Clangers has been produced from the original audio recordings by Oliver Postgate, and carefully adapted for a new generation of listeners by Framewood Media Ltd.
