Meet the Characters

Scorch the iron Hari
Hello I’m Hari. In my book series I bumble around having lots of fun with my friends but I do some silly things where I could hurt myself. When my friends shout ‘Oops Hari!’ it helps me to learn how to ‘Play Safe and not Sorry.’ And because I’m an elephant I never forget.
Scorch the iron Moe
Hi, I’m Moe, Hari’s best friend. I try and keep Hari safe but sometimes he just doesn’t listen and then we both get into trouble!
Scorch the iron Max
‘Grrrrrr’, I like to play all of the time and I love getting up to mischief. I hide away from Hari and Moe and I run about barking. Sometimes my antics get all three of us into trouble.
Scorch the iron Sting
I live in Hari’s garden with my large family. I can pester Hari and his friends but mainly I mind my own business. Until that is I get annoyed and then ‘Watch Out!’
Scorch the iron Burnie
I am a friendly toaster but when making toast I put on an angry face because I get very hot and don’t want Hari touching me.
Scorch the iron Whistler
I love to boil water and make steam and whistle loudly. I make an angry face when I’m switched on to warn Hari not to touch me because I am very hot and could scald him.
Scorch the iron Dusty
When I’m cleaning Hari’s home I ask him to be careful not to trip on my long lead, which is plugged into the electric socket. But Hari doesn’t always listen!
Scorch the iron Scorch
When I’m ironing Hari’s sheets I get very hot and don’t like him getting close to me so I put on an angry face. I don’t like my electric lead trailing on the floor because Hari can trip on it.
Scorch the iron Potsy
I love making hot food but am happier when I am on the back plate of the cooker and my handle is not pointing forward. I get really angry when I am on the front plate.
Scorch the iron Blade
I cut the grass so that Hari and his friends can all have fun playing on the lawn but Hari must stay away from me when I am angry because my blades are very sharp!
Scorch the iron BB
I am such a good cook and I love making Hari and his friends lots of healthy food but they must remember to stay away because I get very hot indeed!
