Premise[]

The show is set in the Little Kingdom which is hidden among thorny brambles. The Little Kingdom is ruled by King and Queen Thistle, kept a secret from "big people" (which in theory are normal people), mainly from the Little Castle, where they live with their three daughters; 8-year-old Holly, and younger twins Daisy and Poppy. Elves including 8-year-old Ben live at the Great Elf Tree, which acts as a school, library, apartment block and factory for toys and wands. Elves hold the belief that they should never arrive late to anything. Civil fairies live in the Fairy Village, which consists of toadstools which have doors and windows.
