Description:  The Littles is an animated television series, originally produced from 1983 to 1985, based on the children's book series by John Peterson. The show follows a family of tiny humanoids with tails and pointed ears who live in the walls of a human family's home. They are generally unseen by humans, except for the young boy in the family, Henry Bigg, who befriends them and helps them on their adventures, often against human antagonists who threaten their existence.

Premise: The series is about a hidden society of tiny, mouse-like humanoids (known as "The Littles") who live secretively within human homes.

Characters: The main characters are the Little family, including kids Tom and Lucy, and their grandfather, Gramps. They often interact with Henry Bigg, the only human aware of their existence.

Plot: Episodes often involve the Littles overcoming obstacles, navigating the world of humans, and dealing with dangers like predators or nefarious humans who want to harm or expose them. A recurring villain in the series was a scientist named Dr. Hunter, who was intent on capturing a Little to prove his theories.

Themes: The show explores themes of community, environmental awareness, and resourcefulness.
