Bear and Tiger live on the river bank in a tiny poky house. One day while fishing Bear discovers a chest with inscription “PANAMA”. This stirs their curiosity. Where might this Panama be, what it looks like, what it smells like? Soon their curiosity turns into a dream and on the next morning Bear and Tiger jump in a boat and float down the river in search of Panama. On the road they meet Fish, Cow and Bird who insist that in order to discover Panama, one must go strictly left. So keeping left and left, Bear and Tiger arrive where they started from – their tiny poky house, which now after the whole adventure appears to them as the loveliest place on earth! Welcome back home!

In every country, in every town, in every neighbourhood, on every street lives at least one weird old man who can not smile. He doesn't like ice cream, he doesn't like flying kites, doesn't like playing football or playing with kids and even less than he likes to talk to his neighbours. What is that about? About the weather...let's say. He doesn't like anything or anyone and...probably this is why he is this grumpy. And maybe this is how he will be...unless some day little wonders start happening in his gray life... „Little wizards“ is a fun story about love, goodness and our wish to change the world.
