Little is an accompanying series of 42 (33 published in English) books by the same author with female characters that started in 1981.

History
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4b/Mr._Tickle.jpg/190px-Mr._Tickle.jpg)
The first six Mr Men books were published in 1971, priced 20p. Mr. Tickle was the first Mr. Men character created by Hargreaves after his son, Adam, asked him what a tickle looked like: a round, orange figure with long, bendy arms. Each book in the original Mr. Men and Little series introduced a different title character and their single dominant trait in order to convey a simple moral lesson. The Mr. Men and Little characters would frequently reappear in the later books of other characters. The books' simple and silly stories, with bright-coloured, boldly drawn illustrations, made them very popular, with sales over 100 million worldwide in 22 languages.
A competition was held in the Sunday Times for children to submit their own Mr. Men character, which was to be published in a limited edition to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series. Mr. Cheeky by 8 year-old Gemma Almond was the winner, and her creation was then published and sold only in branches of W H Smith, with a portion of the proceeds going to a charity for children's leukemia.
In April 2004, Hargreaves' widow, Christine, sold the rights to the Mr. Men and Little Miss characters to the UK entertainment group, Chorion. In 2006, to celebrate 35 years of Mr. Men (and 25 years of Little ) Mr. Birthday and Little Birthday were published. There was also an art exhibition at The Art Animation Gallery[1] in Central London, and in October 2006, Adam Hargreaves created the first Little character based on a real person; 'Little Stella', based on Stella McCartney, appeared in a limited edition of 1,000 books produced as fashion show invitations.[2]
The typeface for the Little Miss books from Bossy to Star is Univers; the books from Busy to Sommersault use Helvetica; and all the other books in the series use Optima.

Mr. Men series
# | Character name/book title | First published | ISBN | |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Mr. Tickle | 1971 | ||
Mr. Tickle's story begins as he makes himself breakfast without getting up because of his "extraordinarily long arms". He then decides that it is a tickling sort of day and so goes around town tickling people - a teacher, a policeman, a greengrocer, a station guard, a doctor, a butcher and a postman. The book ends with a warning that Mr. Tickle could be lurking around your doorway, waiting to tickle you. | ||||
2 | Mr. Greedy | 1971 | ||
One day, while exploring a gigantic room, Mr Greedy Is caught by a giant and the giant forces him to eat all of the dinner on the giant's plate. Mr Greedy appears in several other books, including Little Miss Chatterbox and Little Miss Contrary. | ||||
3 | Mr. Happy | 1971 | ||
Mr Happy discovers Mr. Miserable and teaches him to be happy. Mr. Miserable is identical to Mr Happy, but frowns rather than smiles.
Mr Happy has appeared in more Mr Men and Little Miss stories than any other character. | ||||
4 | Mr. Nosey | 1971 | ||
Mr Nosey pokes his nose into other people's business which the people of Tiddletown do not like one bit. They decide to stop him by hurting his long nose; this causes Mr Nosey to stop being nosy and become good friends with everybody in Tiddletown. Mr Nosey appears in the stories of Little Miss Bossy and Little Miss Scatterbrain, among others. | ||||
5 | Mr. Sneeze | 1971 | ||
Mr. Sneeze lives in Shivertown the capital of Cold Land and he always has a cold. He goes on a journey to cure himself, where he encounters sunshine and magic in equal proportions. His poor red nose often needs a good blow, and he is never without his trusty hanky. But his sneezing ends up saving the day. | ||||
6 | Mr. Bump | 1971 | ||
Poor Mr. Bump - he’s always covered in bandages. He just can’t avoid bumping into things. His accident-prone nature has cost him many jobs; but his luck changes when Mr. Barley the farmer employs him to work in his apple orchard. Now our bumping beauty spends his time wandering around the orchard, and knocking all the apples off the trees. | ||||
7 | Mr. Snow | 1971 | ||
The story of Mr. Snow, the snowman is a heart-warming Yuletide tale of an over busy Father Christmas who chooses Mr Snow to help him deliver presents to the children. | ||||
8 | Mr. Messy | 1972 | ||
Mr. Neat and Mr. Tidy turn Mr. Messy’s life around and make him neat and tidy! The two men “brushed, swept, polished and scrubbed” his house until it sparkled. And after they’d turned their attention to Mr. Messy, and bathed him, he looked in the mirror and remarked: “I’m going to have to change my name!” | ||||
9 | Mr. Topsy-Turvy | 1972 | ISBN 978 1 4052 5099 3 | |
Mr. Topsy-Turvy does everything the wrong way around. One day he comes to the town where the reader lives. He rents a room in a hotel, speaking to the hotel manager the wrong way around, "Afternoon good, I'd room a like." The next day, he confuses the taxi driver with his backwards speaking, causing an accident, buying a pair of socks and putting them on his hands, then he disappears, but everything is still topsy-turvy. | ||||
10 | Mr. Silly | 1972 | ||
As a resident of Nonsenseland, Mr. Silly is plain silly with his idea for the Nonsense Cup. Painting the red leaves of the tree in the City Square green gained him not only the coveted trophy, but also the silly respect of the King. | ||||
11 | Mr. Uppity | 1972 | ||
Mr. Uppity lives in Bigtown and he is very rich. He is rude to everybody (they call him Miserable old Uppity) until one day he meets a goblin. When he is rude to the goblin, the goblin shrinks Mr. Uppity so he can fit into a hole in a tree, and they enter the tree to meet the King of the Goblins. The goblin agrees to shrink Mr. Uppity if he is rude to somebody. This happens, until Mr. Uppity is nice. In the end, he's still rich, but now he's very popular. | ||||
12 | Mr. Small | 1972 | ||
Mr. Small is, unsurprisingly, the smallest of the Mr. Men. He lives in a house underneath a daisy, at the bottom of Mr. Robinson’s garden. His tiny size is an occupational hazard, as he soon finds out when he falls into sweet jars, mustard pots and match boxes. But he finds eternal happiness and fame when a man decides to write a book all about his adventures. | ||||
13 | Mr. Daydream | 1972 | ||
Mr Daydream brightens up a boy's boring day by whisking him away on a daydream adventure. | ||||
14 | Mr. Forgetful | 1976 | ||
Mr. Forgetful has a short memory. This is not particularly useful. One day he has to remember a message for Farmer Fields to say that there is a sheep loose in the lane. Can he remember the message? Sadly, no for he says "there is a goose asleep in the rain". | ||||
15 | Mr. Jelly (Also published as Mr. Nervous) | 1976 | ||
Mr Jelly is scared of everything - even his own shadow! He is famous for blowing things out of all proportions, and being absolutely terrified by the slightest noise. A kindly vagabond teaches him how to settle his nerves. | ||||
16 | Mr. Noisy | 1976 | ||
Mr. Noisy slams doors and clumps down the hill; and even when he is asleep, his snore could be mistaken for a herd of elephants. He changes his ways when the residents pretend they cannot hear him. Eventually Mr. Noisy gets so fed up of not being heard, he succumbs to their plan and begins to whisper. | ||||
17 | Mr. Lazy (also published as Mr. Bone Idle) | 1976 | ||
Mr Lazy lies in bed most of day. He only wakes up to yawn! But when he does get out of bed, he falls asleep in the garden!
However boring his life sounds, it soon becomes exciting when Mr Busy and Mr Bustle come to visit him. They've got all sorts of things for Mr Lazy to do, but he is never too keen to be getting on with them, not when there's sleeping to be getting on with! | ||||
18 | Mr. Funny | 1976 | ||
Mr. Funny is similar to Mr Happy. He drives about in his little shoe car making people laugh. He performs a unique act of amusing magic at the zoo, which is closed due to all the animals having colds. Good old Mr. Funny pulls funny faces at the elephant, the lion, the bear, and the giraffe, and leaves them in fits of giggles. | ||||
19 | Mr. Mean (also published as Mr. Stingy) | 1976 | ||
Mr. Mean never spends a penny of his money. He is so mean he gives his brother a piece of coal for Christmas. One day a wizard starts disguising himself as people in need. Each time Mr. Mean rejects helping them, a spell is placed on a part of his body, such as his nose turning into a carrot, his ears turning into tomatoes. He gives help when he realizes his feet are about to fall under a spell. Then he spends his money, and now he gives his brother two pieces of coal for Christmas. | ||||
20 | Mr. Chatterbox | 1976 | ||
Mr. Chatterbox brings about his own downfall when he decides to buy a new hat. Mr. Bowler sells our talkative hero a beautiful red hat, which just happens to be magic. The more Mr. Chatterbox talks, the more the hat grows! | ||||

Looking rather like Mr. Happy with a hat, Mr. Bounce is the Mr. Man who can’t sit still. Luckily, the superbly named Dr. Makeyouwell gives him a pair of tiny red boots. But being Mr. Man land, they aren’t ordinary boots. These boots are extremely heavy, and keep Mr. Bounce’s feet firmly on the ground. But the best thing about Mr. Bounce is the noise he makes when he hits the ground. | ||||
23 | Mr. Muddle | 1976 | ||
Poor muddled Mr. Muddle. He can’t do anything right. In fact he is so muddled up, his face is on the wrong side of his body! He’s only too happy to lend a hand, but instead, usually ends up making the situation worse. Ask him to push and he’ll pull. Ask him to pick something up, and he’ll put it down. But the clever people of Seatown realise that the way to get him to do the right thing is to ask him to do the opposite. | ||||
24 | Mr. Dizzy | 1976 | ||
Poor Mr. Dizzy is the laughing stock of Cleverland. He’s not very bright and all his neighbours delight in making him look stupid. When Mr. Dizzy drinks the water from the wishing well, he magically becomes intelligent and is able to outwit the pig and the elephant who had both made him look silly earlier. | ||||
25 | Mr. Impossible | 1976 | ||

Mr Strong is so strong that you can barely believe it. He is the nearest thing to a super hero in Mr Man land. He gets all his strength from eating hundreds of eggs!

Mr Grumpy is the grouchiest person in the world. He lives in Happyland, He's always in a bad mood, hating anyone or anything he comes across.

This works, because it makes Mr. Grumpy nicer. He laughs out happier. Now when he picks up a book, he only tears out one page. | ||||
28 | Mr. Clumsy | 1978 | ||

When there is nothing to worry about, Mr. Worry is happy for a week, until he is worried about not having anything to worry about. | ||||
33 | Mr. Nonsense | 1978 | ||
