Preschoolers around the world can’t seem to get enough llama drama. Now, they’ll be able to catch up with their favorite mammal on-screen whenever they want.

Netflix announced this week it's adapted the Llama Llama bestselling children’s book series into a new animated show, available to stream later this month. Llama Llama stars Jennifer Garner as Mama Llama and follows the adventures of a young llama and his family and friends. The first season will feature 15 30-minute episodes aimed at young children, although parents may learn a few things from watching, too.

The Llama Llama books, written by the late Anna Dewdney, cover topics ranging from nighttime fears, to resolving conflict, to first-day-of-school-jitters. Dewdney died in 2016 from brain cancer, but she left behind a legacy that includes more than 20 Llama Llama books and spinoffs. (The titles have sold more than 12 million copies worldwide.)

The new Netflix series may not be as much fun for you as watching Ludacris rap the popular Llama Llama Red Pajama book, but it’s sure to be a hit with the 3- and 4-year-olds in your life. All episodes of Llama Llama will be on Netflix for streaming on January 26.
