Tinkerbell brummmed into action. “I’m Ready!” brummmed Tinkerbell.“Wait, wait!” giggled Clarita, “We must first tell TomTom where we want to go.”TCT Cooper cleverly stretches your imagination with fun and laughter in this series of adventures about Tinkerbell, a chubby cheeky green and sometimes stubbornly proud Mini Cooper and her friends as they enjoy going on their adventures and meeting new friends along the way. Clarita is a happy-go-lucky young lady with curly hair and freaky clothes. TomTom is an intelligent boffin navigator who prides himself on his knowledge of how to get around.
