Pecola is an orphaned penguin who lives with Pecolias, his Grandfather. Cube Town is an isolated small coastal village with such features as an art museum, beach, lighthouse (which has the number 36 above its entrance) and canal. It is located adjacent to Crescent Bay surrounded by the Rookery Mountains coastal range and served by regular ships (including a weekly freighter) that deliver mail, foodstuffs and other supplies plus occasional tourists from a nearby large metropolis named Cubic City. The heights above it lead into Glacier Valley which is snowbound even during summer.

Where it came from
Pecola, a whimsical animated series, premiered in 2003 based on a series of children's picture books created by Japanese author and illustrator Naomi Iwata. The show was produced by Milky Cartoon and Nelvana, emerging during a period where CGI-animated children’s programming was rapidly gaining traction. Its narrative centers on a curious, white penguin who arrives in the brightly colored, surreal town of Cube Town, where the architecture is uniquely constructed of blocks, reflecting the show's distinct visual geometry.
The aesthetic design of the series is rooted in the minimalist, blocky artistic vision of Iwata, which intended to create a playful and approachable environment for young viewers. Upon its release, the show was noted for its unconventional art style and gentle, episodic storytelling. While it gained a modest following, it is primarily recognized today for its contribution to the niche of early-2000s 3D-animated series that prioritized stylized, simplified character design over the hyper-realistic CGI trends of that era.
