The Lord’s Little Beast Whisperer

What The Lord’s Little Beast Whisperer is about

Winnie was born able to understand animals, but her cruel aunt and uncle treat her gift as something to punish. They abuse her, accuse her of witchcraft, and nearly see her burned at the stake before Edgar, heir to House Hereward, steps in to rescue her. What he doesn't realize is that the girl he just saved is his own long-lost daughter.

Once father and daughter find each other, the story becomes a fairy-tale family drama with a suspenseful streak. Winnie uses her gift, and a crew of animal friends, to uncover plots, look out for her family, and work toward rescuing her mother. The tone balances heartfelt moments with scheming troublemakers and a pint-sized heroine who is sharper than the adults around her expect.

Why watch it

• A girl who talks to animals makes for charming, fairy-tale problem solving.
• The hidden-identity setup builds to a heartfelt father-daughter reunion.
• Short episodes full of plots, sabotage and a clever kid outsmarting adults.

Who it's for

Viewers who enjoy lost-child reveals, gifted kids, and fantasy family dramas with real danger and plenty of heart will feel right at home.
