Also serves as a Mythbuster by showing how people long ago crafted tales through exaggerated descriptions of actual animals or occurrences (i.e. the Manticore being a Tiger), but also leaves some events ambiguous to their true nature.

Also, every illustration of them features them looking more like Gnomes (which are discussed later). However, this statement comes off as a bit of ironic humor: "Dwarves are very helpful and are believed to be good fortune. However, it is wise to leave food for them and [[OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame never to swear]] or [[Disney/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs even whistle when they are around.]]"
