Review quote:

The colourful characters have been delighting children since Mr Tickle first appeared on bookshelves in 1971. The Independent

The Mr Men and Little Miss characters remain a cultural phenomenon, whose impact is felt far beyond the nursery bookshelf. The Telegraph

Biographical note:

Adam Hargreaves is the son of Roger Hargreaves who created the Mr. Men and Little Miss series. Adam was the inspiration for the series when, at the age of eight, he asked his father ”What does a tickle look like?” In response, Roger drew a figure with a round orange body and long, rubbery arms and Mr. Tickle was born. He was soon joined by Mr Greedy, Mr Happy, Mr Nosey, Mr Sneeze and Mr Bump. The books were an instant hit and 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.
