High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Kindle Entertainment is an independent children`s television production company based in London, England. Kindle was formed after ITV Kids (a section of ITV Productions) was closed, and current personnel includes Anne Brogan, the former controller of ITV Kids. Kindle`s first production was a pair of behind-the-scenes documentaries about Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, shown before its cinematic release. Kindle was then involved in the live-action children`s comedy My Spy Family, which was shown on Boomerang. Kindle currently produces the pre-school puppet-based show Big & Small, shown on over 40 channels worldwide. Big & Small Online, a website about the programme, won a Children`s BAFTA in 2009 for best interactive content, and, in the same year, Kindle itself was shortlisted for the best indepent production company. Kindle`s first film production, Dustbin Baby, was first shown in December 2008 to critical acclaim, and has, since then, won both an International Emmy and a Children`s BAFTA. In late 2009, Kindle launched a new show on CBBC. Jinx follows the story of Lulu Baker, a teenage girl who is able to cast spells from her magic cookbook.
