Dickie Duck

Dickie Duck (known as Paperetta Yè Yè in Italy and as Pata Lee in Brazil) is the granddaughter of Glittering Goldie, who was left in the care of Scrooge McDuck as her grandmother could not take care of her anymore.

Dickie's age depends on the artist of each story; sometimes, she's roughly the age of Huey, Dewey and Louie, while other times she looks like an older teenager.

There are some Brazilian comics with her as the protagonist, where she's part of a group of teenagers composed of Beckett (the Aracuan Bird renamed and reimagined as a quirky teenager) and original characters Neptunia, Olympia and Walter. Despite these stories happening on Duckburg, they don't include appearances of other characters of the Duck Universe.

Despite the character's success in Brazil, she stopped being used by Italian authors who considered her too tied to a 60s teenager social context that doesn't exist anymore. To keep the character, she was still used in parodies of classic literature. Recently, Dickie has resurfaced in Italian comics as a reporter who appears in crowd scenes.
