• Wissper is a 7-year-old girl, born with the magical ability to whisper to animals. She has a loving connection to all creatures. By using the magic word “Sssshhh!…”, she can transport herself to anywhere if there is an animal in trouble. Wissper is sweet natured, except when animals are behaving badly.
• Peggy is a baby penguin, who is loveable, cute and mischievous. A great swimmer, erratic waddler and Wissper’s best friend Peggy often accompanies Wissper on her amazing adventures.
• Kev is an energetic, confident crocodile with a surfer-dude attitude. Above all he’s enthusiastic – he’d love to be a top surfer, but he never quite hits the crest of a wave.
• Dan is a panda who is laid back, slow, gentle and zen-like. Dan can be shy in a crowd and is quite content with his own company. When he talks, it appears not to make much sense, since everything he says seems to come from a fortune cookie. Dan loves to chew on bamboo.
• Stripes is a tiger who is a feisty, sophisticated lady; powerful and happy in her own fur. Stripes is a well spoken mother figure to Wissper when in the animal worlds. She is fierce when she wants to be, but also inclined to want her tummy rubbed.
• Herbert is a horse and an honest, strong and hardworking chap who is at his happiest when working up a sweat in the fields or pulling heavy logs up a grassy slope. He likes nothing better than to have Wissper riding on his back. He has the hairiest feet you have ever seen.
• Gertie and Otis: Gertie is a giraffe who is tall, gangly, nervous, jittery and easily frightened. Otis is an oxpecker bird who is Gertie’s laid back, musical companion. Together best friends, Gertie and Otis are the perfect combination to help when height is needed.
• Monty is a meerkat who is very lively – chattering, playing and racing. He’s quick, alert, suspicious, funny and unpredictable. Monty has a huge family and loves acrobatics.
• Ellington is an elephant who is clumsy, and loves waking up all. He also loves acrobatics.
• Ralph (aka Ralphie) is Wissper’s brother. He wears yellow glasses and a blue beanie, and is shown to be fond of video games. He dislikes being called Ralphie and prefers to be called Ralph.
• Oscar is an orangutan.
