Mr. Happy (Mr. Men Classic Story Books)

Product Information

Mr. Muddle is so named because everything he does ends up in a hopeless muddle. He wanted to live in the countryside but got muddled and built his house by the seaside instead, and when he tries to make a roast dinner of turkey, potatoes, peas, and gravy, he puts the turkey in the cupboard to cook and the potatoes in the fridge to boil, then peels the peas and tries to slice the gravy. Mister Descriptor: The Mr. Men and Little Misses are all simply called "Mr./Little Miss (Personality or Appearance Trait)".

Nice Guy: Most of the characters not listed under Jerkass could count, but it's most prominent with Mr. Happy, Mr. Perfect, Mr. Good, Little Miss Sunshine, Little Miss Helpful and Little Miss Hug. The Ditz: Mr. Dizzy starts out living up to his name, coming up with bizarre answers to simple questions asked by a pig and an elephant purely to rub in how clueless he is (such as naming a mouse as a big animal with big ears). However, after drinking from a magic well, he becomes intelligent and turns the tables on them with style. Limited Special Ultimate Collector's Edition: Dr. Thirteenth arrived to coincide with the debut of her television counterpart, and thus was initially published as a larger-sized "Limited Edition" hardcover with gold foil detailing on a teal cover (it also had the actual Doctor Who logo on the front, another change from the others). While Christmas Surprise! was also a hardcover, it was otherwise a standard-format book. He answers questions right as seen in Music (though in the UK version, he got his bonus wrong while in the US, he remarked about Miss Sunshine's playing the piano).

Miss Scary takes great pleasure in scaring the innocent folk of Dillydale and spends much of her time creating spooky experiments, that never seem to end well. Lighter and Softer: While Doctor Who has long been handled as a children's (in its original 1963-89 run) or family show (2005-onwards), it's rarely shied away from violent action, suspense, and outright horror elements. By design, this series presents a cuddlier version of the various heroes and villains, though there's a lot of deadly peril in each one and Never Say "Die" is averted. Intermission: The early 1980s VHS release for the Mr. Men Volumes had an intermission. The narrator is heard humming the show's theme song while wondering which Mr. Men is up next.When Mr. Mischief seizes a sleeping wizard's wand in "Mr. Mischief", the wizard seizes Mr. Mischief's nose, who replies "Led go ob my node!" Even Evil Has Standards: Mr. Brawler/Mr. Crosspatch may be violent, but he knows that it's wrong to hit a woman. In 'Reptiles', Little Miss Sunshine had a pink lizard for a pet called Pinky. She also has a pet poodle shown in 'Trees'.

Ditzy Genius: Despite being a brilliant inventor (and proud of it), Mr. Clever is completely clueless with emotional or sensory questions. When Mr. Happy asks him for the world's funniest joke, he admits to knowing no jokes; when Mr. Greedy asks him for the world's tastiest recipe, he admits to knowing no recipes; and so on. When he tries to return to Cleverland in shame, he walks off in the wrong direction.

Mr. Cheeky · Mr. Christmas · Mr. Birthday · Little Miss Jealous · Little Miss Christmas · Little Miss Birthday · Little Miss Stella · Mr. Moustache · Little Miss Explorer · Little Miss Valentine · Mr. Bolt · Little Miss Waste Less · Mr. Octopus In 2017, an unusual Spinoff launched: a series of books plus a line of tie-in merchandise adapting characters from the beloved Science Fiction show Doctor Who into these books' art style and story format. Each book features one of the Doctor's many incarnations (specifically the ones numbered One through Thirteen) with the titling convention of Dr. First, Dr. Second, and so on. Tropes featured in this spinoff have their own listing below. Mr. Miserable stayed in Happyland for a while, and Mr. Happy helped him to become even happier. Mr. Miserable le Mistaken for Fake Hair: In "Little Miss Fabulous", Little Miss Splendid spreads a rumor that the eponymous Little Miss Fabulous is wearing a blonde wig. Little Miss Trouble tests this out by tugging on Little Miss Fabulous's hair (to the latter's chagrin), and finds out it's not fake. Unusually Uninteresting Sight: None of the humans seem to so much as blink at the sight of talking shapes and even engage in regular chatter with them.

The title character in Mr. Daydream is, as one would expect, just a daydream of a bored schoolboy, and he is woken up by his teacher at the end of the book. The Animated Adaptation ends with an Or Was It a Dream?, with Mr. Daydream making a final silent appearance and waving to the viewers.Distaff Counterpart: The Little Misses to the Mr. Men in general and some Little Misses to specific Mr. Men (Mr. and Little Miss Chatterbox; Mr. and Little Miss Busy; Mr. Happy and Little Miss Sunshine; Mr. Greedy and Little Miss Plump; Mr. Small and Little Miss Tiny, etc.). Some of them are even explicitly stated to be brother and sister. The fact that the book is not written by Roger or Adam Hargreaves could explain why no other Mr. Men or Little Misses that are canon appear in this book. It also explains why he never appeared in any of the TV shows and is not part of the Mr. Men library.
