No one
could be happier than Little Miss Sunshine but can she change the way things
are done in MiseryLand?The Mr Men and Little Miss have been delighting
children for generations with their charming and funny antics. Bold
illustrations and funny stories make Mr Men and Little Miss the perfect story
time experience for children aged two up. Have you met them all?It all
started with a tickle.
Roger Hargreaves' son Adam asked him what a tickle looked like. In
response, Roger drew a small orange man with extraordinarily long arms that
could reach anywhere and tickle anyone. Mr Tickle, the first of the Mr Men,
was born.
Mr Tickle was soon joined by Mr. Greedy, Mr. Happy, Mr.
Nosey, Mr Sneeze and Mr Bump. When the first Mr Men books were published
they became an instant hit. Roger went on to create many more Mr Men and
Little Miss characters.
What Roger really wanted was to make children laugh, which is probably why
his own favourite character is Mr Silly.
