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. 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.

When Father Christmas receives a letter from a little boy in Australia wishing for a white Christmas he knows just who to ask. The little boy's white Christmas will be more exciting than he could have ever imagined thanks to the Mr. Men! Another great 'Mr. Men Christmas story', complete with snowy kangaroos, an ice-skating Mr. Bump and a snowball fight with Father Christmas!

Poor Mr Quiet doesn't look forward to Christmas, like you and I do. It's just too noisy for him. Noisy crackers, noisy carol singers, a noisy postman delivering Christmas cards, and, noisiest of all, an annual visit from Mr Noisy himself! But perhaps this year will be different. Maybe, just maybe, Mr Quiet will find a way to get the Silent Night he's always dreamed of ...
