Description

Wallabee "Numbuh 4" Beatles (Codename: Kids Next Door, both have Australian accents, wear orange, and are clumsy),

The accidents he caused were More Worse than Little Miss Helpful's accidents in Her first episode, What a Mess, Little Miss Helpful!. Sudden Name Change: Like Little Miss Greedy, his name was changed from Mr. Uppity to Mr. Snooty due to the word "uppity" having a racist history. Mr. Quiet lives in Loudland, where everybody and everything is too loud for him. Loudland would be suitable for Mr. Noisy, but not for Mr. Quiet. Mr. Quiet is scared. Whenever he tries to go shopping, he can only whisper what he wants, which results in the grocer, the milkman, the baker, and the butcher to shout "CAN'T HEAR YOU! NEXT PLEASE!" One day Mr. Quiet gets a letter from Mr. Happy to stay in Happyland, where Mr. Quiet gets a job in a library, where the rule is to always be quiet. Mr. Quiet is so happy he laughs out loud. Gentle Giant: he is very sensitive and self-conscious about his height, and has to be convinced by the other Mr. Men that his long legs are an advantage. Arbitrary Skepticism: In Mr. Men: Adventure Under The Sea, she laughs off Little Miss Dotty's suggestion that they may find a mermaid, despite her being a shaped human as well as the fact that she lives in a universe where wizards exist. Unlike with Little Miss Stubborn though, she doesn't try and prove that it's not really a mermaid when she sees one at last.Sudden Name Change: Around the late 80s, the word "plump" started to be considered offensive in the UK, so her name was changed to Little Miss Greedy. Subbing for Santa: His own story involves him delivering Santa's presents to the Mr. Men due to Santa being overwhelmed with how many of them there are. Mr Jelly is frightened of absolutely everything! Even the slightest thing will send him hiding under the covers! He lives in a quiet house far out into the woods where there is nobody to scare him, except when he one day meets a tramp who tells him how not to be scared, and that is to count from 1 to 10 everytime he gets scared. He then tried it all the time, such as when he thought that is was a crocodile or a tree about to fall on top of him, and he realised that he stood on a twig!

Both he and Little Miss Helpful dislike Mr. Snooty and Little Miss Splendid, because of how rich they are and they also got bullied by them in their episodes, and Little Miss Magic (but Miss Helpful seems to like Miss Magic but Miss Magic doesn't, so Miss Magic despises Miss Helpful, and Little Miss Star (probably because she is far too famous and she also despises Mr. Clumsy), in which they both did in their episodes. Constantly Curious: As her name indicates, she has an unquenchable thirst for answers to all sorts of questions, such as why the worms in Nonsenseland wear bow ties. Hates Baths: As befits his name, hates taking baths, and has to be forced into the bathtub in the final act of the book bearing his name. He jokes afterward that, now that he is no longer messy, he'll need to change his name. By 1976, Hargreaves had quit his day job. In 1981, the Little Miss series of books began to appear. It, too, was made into a television series in 1983, which was narrated by John Alderton, who, with Pauline Collins, voiced the Men and Misses, respectively. Although Hargreaves wrote many other children's stories, including the Timbuctoo series of twenty-five books, John Mouse, and the Roundy and Squary books, he is best known for his 46 Mr. Men books and 33 Little Miss books.The Eeyore: When Mr. Happy first meets him, he's shown to be down in the dumps. Mr. Happy helps him become more happy. Not-So-Imaginary Friend: It's implied at the end of the Animated Adaptation that he might actually be real. According to Little Miss Chatterbox in Hello, Pizza Express?, Mr. Rush is a distant cousin to Mr. Busy, but so far this is the only source to say so.

Mr. Grumpy rarely appears in books, although he's in Mr. Men and Little Miss. He appears in these episodes: Nice Guy: He has perfectly good manners and doesn't even complain at Mr. Snooty for being rude and miserable throughout his birthday party or at Mr. Mean for getting him a crappy present. Mr. Rush is always in a rush. He never does anything properly. He is in such a rush he has a terrible breakfast (toast not toasted, water cold), only brushes one tooth, and runs out of the house to go nowhere. He sees an ad for a vacation in a magazine but can't go away because he has no money, so he wants a job to make money. Being a bus driver isn't good, because he doesn't stop at any of the stops, being a waiter isn't good because he'd whisk away the food as soon as he brought it. The job he finds is as a postman delivering express letters, the best job for the fastest thing on two feet. He saves enough money and goes on vacation.

Insane Troll Logic: Mr. Nonsense does this a lot, naturally. When asked why he likes oatmeal on toast, he replies, "Because I tried oatmeal sandwiches and I didn't like them!" When asked why he sleeps in a rowboat, he replies, "Because I tried sleeping in a motorboat but it was too uncomfortable!" However, that is neither here nor there. The reason for my letter is that I wish to complain about an unfair national stereotype perpetuated by your books. Little Miss Sunshine Brings A Smile (TV, voice heard offscreen with his own voice and another with a female voice) Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: He's frightened of loud noises which is why he never liked living in Loudland or being around Mr Noisy or the Chatterboxes. Mr Small is as small as a pin he is red with a blue hat. Mr Small wants a job he tries several but to no avail, he is simply too small. Mr Small eventually finds his ideal job – writing children’s books Mr Daydream Mug
