The preschool series “Puffin Rock” (from the makers of the award-winning Irish animated films “The Secret of Kells” and “Song of the Sea”) joins Netflix’s roster of original children’s shows on Tuesday, a few weeks after Netflix added the DreamWorks Animation show “Dinotrux.” Amazon recently posted the first season of a preschool series, “Wishenpoof,” and put up six new pilots for children’s shows in June. While the streaming-video giants Netflix and Amazon draw the attention of adults with provocative dramas like “Narcos” and “Transparent,” they are simultaneously cultivating a less prominent but still important market - very young children. And the crowd gathered on the beach to look at the moon includes Otto the owl, Silky the seal and Mossy the pygmy shrew.
The heroine is an adorable young puffin named Oona. The cargo is the egg of a guillemot (a North Atlantic seabird) that’s about to hatch.
These aren’t Florida drug dealers or Colombian gangsters, however. The whole cast gathers to take in the supermoon. The story’s heroine disappears, and her father sets out to find her. A valuable cargo is hauled across a beach under a ticking deadline.
