Can Lig and Bittle overcome the Muckety Muck and the Ooga Monster to find the place where they both fit in?
Lig is very tall, and Bittle is very small. They both wish they could find someplace where everything is just the right size for each of them, where no one will notice that they are different. When Lig and Bittle hear about Perfeckt Phitt, they set out on a quest to this wonderful place where all their problems will be solved.
Kids Love the Lig & Bittle Audio Play!
