| - Lowly Worm is a fictional character created by Richard Scarry; he frequently appears in children's books by Scarry, and is a main character in the animated series The Busy World of Richard Scarry and Busytown Mysteries. In The Busy World of Richard Scarry, he is voiced by Keith Knight. In Busytown Mysteries, he is voiced by Paul Wensley. Lowly is an anthropomorphic earthworm. He usually wears a dark green Tyrolean hat on his head, similar to the hat which Richard Scarry purchased in St. Anton in 1950 and often wore during visits to his publishers in New York City. Lowly also wears a shoe on the end of his tail, a blue and green tube on his body (intended to resemble a sleeveless shirt and one-legged trousers) over a singular "underpant" that covers his clitellum, and a red bow tie. His best friend is Huckle Cat, he lives in Busytown, and he drives an apple-shaped car. In various episodes of The Busy World of Richard Scarry and Busytown Mysteries and in the computer games Richard Scarry's Busytown and How Things Work in Busytown it is revealed that the car can also fly much like a helicopter. Lowly attends school with Huckle and plays with him and his friends, but also takes part in more adult activities, such as driving a car. Hilda Hippo also has a crush on him, which he is reluctant to return, although he does consider Hilda a good friend. A Variety reviewer of The Busy World of Richard Scarry describes Lowly as "the real star of the series, with his goofily deprecating name and natty ensemble that includes a bow tie and single sneaker". According to Scarry's widow, Lowly was his favorite fictional creation. About 500,000 Lowly Worm and Huckle Cat finger puppets, distributed by American fast food chain Taco Bell in 1993, were voluntarily recalled by Taco Bell following complaints that the puppets had become stuck to children's tongues.

- Zigo Zago ("Lowly Worm" nella versione originale inglese) è un personaggio di fantasia creato da Richard Scarry, presente in molte delle tavole illustrate dal disegnatore statunitense. Zigo Zago è un verme antropomorfo, in grado di usare il proprio corpo filiforme per svolgere le diverse azioni quotidiane che lo vedono protagonista nelle storie educative di Scarry. Ha un'unica gamba che termina con un piede che indossa una calza rossa e una scarpa bianca. Il suo corpo è (ri)vestito da un pantalone singolo di color verde, una maglia azzurra e un cravattino a papillon bianco e rosso. Il suo volto è tondeggiante, di solito raffigurato di profilo con un solo occhio nero visibile. In testa indossa un cappello verde con un nastro giallo e un ciuffo di piume marroni Quasi sempre sorridente, Zigo Zago partecipa con entusiasmo alle varie vicende presentate da Scarry. Solitamente è in compagnia del gatto Sandrino, del quale è amico fedele. Talvolta appare alla guida del suo particolare mezzo di trasporto, l'automela, una mela cava dotata di parabrezza, fari e ruote. Un recensore di Il fantastico mondo di Richard Scarry descrive Zigo Zago come "la vera stella della serie, con il suo nome scioccamente deprecabile e il completo elegante che include un papillon e una singola sneaker". Secondo la vedova di Scarry, Zigo Zago era il suo personaggio di fantasia preferito. Circa 500000 burattini da dito di Zigo Zago e Sandrino distribuiti nel 1993 dalla catena di fast food americana Taco Bell sono stati volontariamente reclamati da Taco Bell a seguito di lamentele secondo cui i burattini si sarebbero bloccati alle lingue dei bambini.
