Description[]
Dylan is a very sweet little boy with a lot of energy and curiosity to spare.
He's first seen wearing the same pajamas he's worn all summer and a little blanket as a cape. When looking for Bittyfolk out in his backyard, he wears a little kids' camo army man poncho.
Background[]
History[]
Dylan is first introduced as he runs around his house in his pajamas trying to get his family to play with him. He knocks on his brother Max's bedroom door, and bothers his mother, Susan Little, who brushes him off while she talks to his school on the phone. Dylan grabs some crackers and cheese from the kitchen before heading outside to his tent in the backyard. He yells back to his family about the little people he's observed in and around the house and sets up some crumbs in the grass, hoping to attract one.
Later that night, Bean, a Moocher Bittyfolk from the compost heap spots the prize on top of a fern and leaps up to collect it, where Dylan finally spots him. Excited about his discovery, he offers to get more food for him, which Bean happily accepts. Dylan gives him a ride back to the Heap and sets five whole Ritz crackers out for the rest of the Heapers. He asks Bean about life as a Bittyfolk, and Bean explains how it isn't easy, as the world isn't made for them-- birds, spiders, rain, and recently, Dylan's father overturning the Heap, destroying most of his home. At this news, Dylan bursts into tears.
Before Dylan leaves again, he asks Bean to keep an eye out for a toy he's lost: a Car-Mo-Bot. Bean is not so eager to agree this time, as he has a lot of his own troubles to worry about, but he assures Dylan he'll try. Considering that revealing all the information about Bittyfolk that he has perhaps wasn't the wisest move, Bean asks if Dylan plans to squish them. Dylan assures him he won't, but suggests maybe getting a hat with a little light on it, as he doesn't always watch where he steps.
Trivia[]
