Whittles appear in several [[Galaxy|galaxies]], notably the [[Tall Trunk Galaxy]]. In the Tall Trunk Galaxy they appear in all the levels. In the first level they teach Mario how to use the [[Blimp Fruit]] on [[Yoshi]] and later on they tell Mario to slide down the gigantic slide to prove his bravery. Whittles are small, humanoid figures with geometric heads and bodies made entirely out of wood, with the exception of a single leaf on their heads. They are a very proud and brave race. Due to this, they like to prove their bravery by sliding down the big slide in their galaxy and surviving its trials. When someone proves their worth the Whittles reward | Whittles appear in several [[Galaxy|galaxies]], notably the [[Tall Trunk Galaxy]]. In the Tall Trunk Galaxy they appear in all the levels.
