Mr Mean doesn't enjoy Christmas, he would prefer to stay at home and count his money. But the Mr Men and Little Miss have a plan to help him see the error of his ways ... Pick up your colouring pens and pencils and join in the Christmas fun with the Mr Men and Little Miss. Enjoy the story and then use the stickers as your colouring guide. Bring Christmas with the Mr Men to life!The Mr Men and Little Miss have been delighting children for generations with their charming and funny antics. Bold illustrations and funny stories make Mr Men and Little Miss the perfect story time experience for children aged two up. Have you met them all? 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. When the first Mr Men books were published they became an instant hit. 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.
