In Guatemala, tiny dolls called quitapenas are given to children who are nervous or on edge, with the idea to have someone to tell their troubles to.

The mobile itself is made by Elias Garcia, but it is his sister's family that makes the dolls.

With a kindly but weathered face, Don Quixote de la Mancha comes to life in a beautiful cedar wood sculpture. He reads aloud to his sidekick, Sancho Panza, who takes notes on a leather scroll.

Leather knapsacks hang from a trunk and rest on the ground beside the men, and Quixote wears tiny pinewood beads on his clothing.
