The book includes such topics as:
- Understanding the cognitive abilities of young viewers, their psychological needs, and their behavioral patterns.
- Principles of script writing, while focusing on script writing for children. This book introduces the reader to a series of techniques from the world of children’s literature, such as: rhyming, accumulation, repetition, rhythmic patterns... techniques that significantly increase children’s joy in the texts to which they are exposed via the screen.
- Children's humor. The book discusses the principles of humor in general, and in children’s comedy in particular. It follows the development of humor among children, from the basic nonsense humor, to sophisticated words games. It explores children's attraction to crude jokes, and to the forbidden humor (shit & pee jokes) so beloved by children. It explains what comic characters are, what comic situations kids love, and what is considered to be a good comic text for a child.

- Puppets in children's TV shows & movies. This book provides its readers with the essential knowledge in the field of incorporation puppets into children's TV shows or movies. It exposes the reader to the various “types” of puppets, and the differences between various puppets manners of expression.
