Adventure with superheroes

Mr Strong has become a superhero with his own secret hideout and gadgets galore, but what every good superhero needs is a sidekick.

So Mr Strong asks his friends if they'd like to try out.

But he soon realises that choosing a sidekick is hard work.

Which Mr Men or Little Miss will have what it takes to make the perfect superhero sidekick? The Mr Men and Little Miss Adventures take Roger Hargreaves' beloved characters on amazing trips to other worlds and different times where they have all kinds of funny and exciting escapades. The books are a new larger format, so that you can enjoy their inimitable stories in even greater scale.

Bold illustrations and funny stories make Mr Men and Little Miss the perfect story time experience for children aged two and up.

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.

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.
