Max & Ruby
Canadian TV series / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Max & Ruby is a Canadian children's preschool animated series based on the book series by Rosemary Wells and produced by Nelvana Limited. The series follows two young rabbit siblings in the 1940s and 1950s. Starting with season 6, their parents were also depicted (the reason is because the creators wanted to show how children solve conflicts on their own).
