Noddy

Noddy is a fictional character created by English children's author Enid Blyton, originally published between 1949 and 1963. There are at least two dozens of Noddybooks.

Enid Blyton's books have been adapted into three animated series.

  • Noddy's Toyland Adventures (1992-1994)
    • NODDY aka The Noddy Shop (1998-2000), a Canadian dub of Adventures framed with live action segments
  • Make Way for Noddy (2002-2007)
  • Noddy: Toyland Detective (2016)
Tropes used in Noddy include:
  • All CGI Cartoon: Make Way and Detective
  • Armless Biped: Inverted by Mr. Wobbly Man, whose arms are fine but his kind lacks legs.
  • As You Know: Others occasionally remind Noddy "After all, you are made out of wood."
  • British Coppers: PC Plod
  • Framing Device: NODDY repurposes Adventures as stories that the main three tell about a set of toys in one box.
  • Fun with Acronyms: The name of the antique toy store in NODDY stands for "Notions, Oddities, Doodads, and Delights of Yesterday".
