Marina Datillo is Prunella's best friend. Although she is blind, she is still able to do many things, such as soccer by use of a beeper for her to hear in the ball. She loves the book series Henry Skreever. She and Prunella met when Prunella unwillingly received a Braille edition of the latest Henry Skreever and the Cabbage of Mayhem and let Marina borrow it, and since then they have become inseparable. Marina is notably good at yoga and joined Prunella and her mother, Wanda, in their early-morning yoga routine. Marina lives with her mother, and her father is not currently a character in the series, though it has been mentioned that he works at the Elwood City Wildlife Center.[2]

Appearance

Marina is a dog[1] that looks similar to a rabbit. She is depicted with a white complexion, short brunette hair with bangs, a white shirt with a bluish-gray sweater over it, a bluish-green skirt, periwinkle socks, and umber brown shoes, and carries a white cane when she walks through town so she knows what is ahead of her.

Personality

Marina sometimes acts as Prunella's mature side. She is kind, understanding, and helpful, although she hates it when people fuss about her because she is blind. This shows that she has some level of independence. She tends to master things quickly (one example is when she does a more complex move in yoga). Marina is also very athletic and plays on a soccer team. Marina also sometimes gets competitive and this sometimes leads to her downfall.

Episodes featured

Trivia

  • On the show's official website, You've Got Braille (a section of Prunella's page) is a play on America Online's "You've Got Mail!"; although it is used to translate the Roman characters into braille characters with raised dots.
  • Most of her appearances are in episodes that feature Prunella as the central character.
  • In "Prunella Sees the Light" from season 7, Marina is shown to be from Mighty Mountain Elementary because she plays on their team.
  • After the Henry Skreever franchise was done, Marina stopped appearing in episodes.
  • In Brain Freeze she is seen with Prunella.
