Description
Anita Diminuta was a blonde and orphan girl with braids that faced numberless hazards and horrible enemies like witches, wizards, octopuses and other dark animals. Her partners were Soldadito (a tin soldier, lame, evidently incarnation of the Steadfast Tin Soldier, from the Hans Christian Andersen tales), Pet Mate or Mateo, a teddy bear, and Del Bosco, a curious dwarfish. Anita fought with the two antagonists: the Carraspia Witch and the Caralampio Wizard. She lived in a cottage with her grandmother, and with Mateo.
