A young boy learns how to solve various issues that young children face with the help of talking animals and a magical zoology book.

Stanley is an imaginative and creative little boy who loves to make simple drawings of his favorite animals. His parents and his older brother can't see or hear the conversations he has with his talking pet goldfish, Dennis. As Stanley's closest adviser, Dennis serves as a guide who shows Stanley the life of animals through his "Big Book of Everything".—doug_funnie

Stanley and his best friend Dennis, a talking goldfish, love animals and adventure. Stanley explores the animal kingdom with Dennis and sometimes his dog, Harry, his cat, Elsie, and some neighborhood friends. They learn all about animals and their habitats in Stanley's Great Big Book of Everything. The book also helps them solve problems at home and school. Each day Stanley uses his thinking skills, imagination and love of animals to encourage viewers to help him solve problems and find out more about the world around them.
