'''Whittles''' are a species of wooden characters appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They appear in numerous galaxies as helpful characters with often simple yet incorrect grammar.

==History==
===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
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 him or her with a [[Power Star|symbol of courage]]. They also consider the giant tree at the center of the Tall Trunk Galaxy sacred. They speak with simplified, somewhat incorrect grammar. For example, in [[Fluffy Bluff Galaxy]], there was one near the first [[Cloud Flower]] that said:<br>
(Before grabbing flower) "Cloud step?"<br>
(After grabbing flower) "Spin! Make cloud!"

Whittles are another species which lives on the [[Starship Mario]] after [[Mario]] completes a certain star. In this case, Mario must complete the second star in the [[Tall Trunk Galaxy]].

===''Mario Party 9''===
