Tiny Tim on his father's shoulder

Tiny Tim Cratchit is the youngest son of Bob Cratchit and Emily Cratchit from A Christmas Carol and on The Muppet Christmas Carol.

Tiny Tim was born a cripple, and must carry a crutch when walking, and also has difficulty breathing, as well as a tendency to break into a coughing fit when too excited. For all of his ailments, Tiny Tim remains cheerful, optimistic, and loving, and enjoys long walks on his father's shoulder. Tiny Tim's plight plays a major role in the eventual reformation of Ebenezer Scrooge.
