Mr Men books are such a classic. I remember enjoying them as a child, and I know they were my husbands favourite when he was little too so it’s lovely to see our boys now enjoying these books. The Mr Men include such a wide variety of characters so there is always someone to appeal to everyone, and there seems to be a Mr Men character for every occasion and character trait!
We were recently sent the Mr Men complete collection set from The Works which includes all 47 of the Mr Men stories in its own special box that doubles up as a library.
The boys were all so excited to see this little library. They do always enjoy books but the way this Mr Men set is presented appealed to them even more. As Mr Z (5) is the biggest Mr Men fan I’ve given him the books to keep in his room but all the boys enjoy these stories. I think Mr Men has such a wide appeal for all ages!
The box contains all the classic Mr Men you probably know and love from your own childhood, and also the newer Mr Men who have been added in more recent years, like Mr Nobody – the latest Mr Men book published in 2010.
The full list of books contained is:
– Mr. Tickle
– Mr. Greedy
– Mr. Happy
– Mr. Nosey
– Mr. Sneeze
– Mr. Bump
– Mr. Snow
– Mr. Messy
– Mr. Topsy-Turvey
– Mr. Silly
– Mr. Uppity
– Mr. Small
– Mr. Daydream
– Mr. Forgetful
– Mr. Jelly
– Mr. Noisy
– Mr. Lazy
– Mr. Funny
– Mr. Mean

The set would make such a lovely gift for any child, and is a fantastic value way to get your hands on the full set! The RRP is RRP:£117.50 but it’s only £39.99 in The Works keeping the price down to well under a pound per book!
We love all the Mr Men so its quite hard to choose a favourite but Mr Z would probably go for Mr Slow and Mr Greedy. He finds them all so funny!

we loved these books! They are such a great classic story!
I love the Mr Men and Little Miss books, definitely fall into the classic section!! my favourite has to be Mr Bump 🙂 thanks for linking up with #ReadWithMe I have tweeted and pinned this post x
We love the Mr Men and have the library too. I think Mr Small is my fave but it changes every time we select a new book! Exellent value too.
We are big Mr Men fans too! I would love to get the whole set for my two to enjoy.
Loved the Mr Men books growing up!
They certainly are enduring classics, can’t believe Roger Hargreaves commenced them in 1971.
I think that the Mr Men should be on every child’s bookcase, my daughter loves the few that we have. This is a great price for the complete collection 🙂
