- Digimon
- El Autobus Magico
- Magic School Bus
- Pokemon
- Powerpuff
- Sabrina the Teenage Witch
- Shrek

My thinking is that purely animal books for very young children (as opposed to books for older kids by, say, Brian_Jacques) are not really speculative fiction while Pokemon, Shrek and up are.
