The Clangers - Treasure
Descripción
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 debris from outer space comes to their peaceful planet, the Clangers explore these strange arrivals with curiosity and wonder. While fishing in the music boat, Tiny catches a sack of golden coins. Obsessing over her new shiny treasure, Tiny begins to ignore her wonderful family and friends. While at dinner, her coins topple over, spilling the Clangers' green soup. To mend the situation, Tiny places her coins on the table to share. Fiddling with the treasure, the Clangers notice the coins are actually delicious chocolate coins. With patience and grace from her family, Tiny realises they are the true treasure she should cherish.
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.

Sobre el autor:
Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin were the visionary duo behind some of Britain's most cherished children's television. Together, they created a string of iconic programmes under their company Smallfilms, including Bagpuss, Ivor the Engine, Noggin the Nog, and of course, The Clangers. With Postgate's gentle narration and storytelling, and Firmin's handcrafted animation and design, their work shaped the childhoods of generations—quietly revolutionary in both form and spirit. The Clangers, first broadcast in 1969, was unlike anything else on television. Set on a distant, cratered planet, it introduced viewers to a family of pink, mouse-like creatures who communicated in melodic whistles and explored life's small wonders with warmth, curiosity, and kindness. The show's whimsical inventiveness, environmental themes, and deeply human values won it lifelong fans, and its original stop-motion artistry still inspires animators and storytellers today. Postgate and Firmin's work was always rooted in care—for storytelling, for children, for craftsmanship, and for the world around them. The Clangers was produced in their converted cowshed in Kent using handmade sets, found objects, and music composed by Vernon Elliott. There was nothing cynical or commercial in their vision; these were stories made with heart. In 2015, The Clangers was lovingly revived for the BBC by Peter Firmin and Oliver's son, Daniel Postgate, introducing the characters to an entirely new generation while preserving the essence of the original series.
