Season 2 of Dash & Lily already in active development
Good news for the future of the series too. We’re happy to report that season 2 of the series is in active development. This doesn’t mean its future is 100% in the bag but that future episodes are being mapped out and that makes sense given the sequel books the writers have to source stories from.
