Based on the book series by John Peterson, The Littles aired for three seasons on ABC’s Saturday morning lineup. Young Henry Bigg has a secret living in his walls, tiny humanoids with rodent features called Littles. Similar to something like The Borrowers, the Littles have made things based on stuff they find. The youngest Littles, siblings Tom and Lucy, make friends with Henry as the three have various adventures, dragging in the siblings’ pilot cousin Dinky and their grandfather. In later seasons Henry’s family go on a worldwide tour and the quartet of Littles end up going with them for international adventures.
Tonight we see how Henry and the Littles first met in the movie Here Come The Littles, produced by DIC Entertainment, who also made the TV series. The same art and animation style and voice cast from the series also appear in this movie. When Henry’s parents are missing, Henry is sent to stay with his evil uncle. However, Tom and Lucy fell into his suitcase, and when they learn their mutual home is threatened, our heroes band together to save Tom and Lucy’s parents and Henry’s home. Enjoy.
