Craig Before the Creek
Before he made friends he found adventure.
Directed by Ben Levin, Matt Burnett
Produced by Cartoon Network Studios
A heartwarming animated adventure about a homesick new kid who discovers friendship and belonging through a treasure hunt in the suburban wilderness.
Before he was Craig of the Creek, he was just Craig — a new kid in a new town. All Craig wants is to go back to his old friends at his old home. But when he learns that the nearby creek is hiding a lost treasure that could make his wish come true, Craig sets off on a journey to find it — navigating the perilous suburban wilderness, forging new friendships, all while being pursued by a fearsome band of pirates who are bent on destroying the Creek itself.
