Xcitabelle
Xcitabelle when calm and mild
Was simply perfect, (for a child)
You’d want to hug her where she stood,
She was so quiet and so good!
But when she got excited — Well!
You ought to see her jump and yell!

Xcitabelle's story is perfect for the little ones that are easily excited
We know you can’t wait to meet the next Goop, so welcome Xcitabelle! She is an animated Goop who loves to get excited and make lots of noise when she does so, which can, of course, get a bit annoying. Still, everyone in Goop World loves her dearly.
One spring morning, Xcitabelle and her friend Goblick go to find the bewitching wisteria vines, and while there, a magical door opens and leads Xcitabelle into Ashikaga Park in Japan! There, she hears a mysterious voice and soon meets a little caterpillar named Yoshi, who warns her about the red slugs, who want to cling to Xcitabelle and make her shrivel away. The only way to defeat them is with the poisonous seeds of the Chinese wisteria tree, but almost all of the wisteria are Japanese! Can she overcome her tendency to get excited and stay calm long enough to find the right tree?
Fortunately, the mysterious voice Xcitabelle heard earlier seems to be on her side as she works to calm herself down. It leads her in the right direction, but the red slugs aren’t about to make it easy for her. Will she keep a cool head and think of a way to get to the Chinese wisteria?
Xcitabelle’s walk through Ashikaga Park will help kids learn to uncover their hidden talents and abilities. Xcitabelle will need to do just that if she wants to make it home. Will her excitement get the better of her? Join us in Japan to find out!
This small story for kids will help them balance their emotions and open their mind to abilities they have yet to uncover. While walking among the wisteria, they will engage with their imaginations and the world around them, expand their vocabulary, and find entertainment away from their screens. They’ll want to come back to Goop World again and again after spending time with Xcitabelle!
