Come celebrate the power of friendship with the adventures of Maggie and her pals: the large and lovable Ferocious Beast and the steadfast and true pig, Hamilton Hocks.Hamilton the chef needs an extra-big pumpkin for one of his famous recipes, but when the Beast and Maggie arrive with the other ingredients, they find that Hamilton has dug his way into a bit of a problem. Nowhere Land gets its own train as Hamilton, Beast and Maggie lay out the tracks. The Jelly Bean Team become the passengers and the Express chugs its way to Sand Castle Beach. During a contest to see who can shout the loudest, the Beast roars a little too ferociously and loses his voice. How can he be ferocious without his roar?

In Maggie and the Ferocious Beast's Recipes for Trouble, Maggie, Hamilton, and the Ferocious Beast embark on all sorts of different adventures together. Many of the episodes focus on food, and the hilarious episode involving jelly beans riding a train will delight your child and spark their imagination.
The strong bonds of friendship between Maggie, Hamilton, and Beast really illustrate the importance of being a good friend. They have so much fun together, and your little one will get wrapped up in all of their adventures. The plot of each episode is simple yet creative, so a young viewer will learn something new but not be overwhelmed.
Last year, my niece, Audrey, was a bee for Halloween. When she watched the episode where Hamilton dressed up like a bee to get honey, she really got a kick out of the fact that they both had the same costume. I love to watch this show with her because it always makes her laugh so much. The show is very well written and will encourage lots of chuckles from both you and your child.
