Mr Bump - Roger Hargreaves

Advantages: ANOTHER GREAT ADDITION
Disadvantages: NONE

...Mr Birthday is a new addition to the Roger Hargreaves family of Mr Men. He is not part of the original series and only appears in the "added sparkle" series to commemorate 35 years of Mr Men (1971-2006). The book is still written by Adam Hargreaves as well as illustrated by him. As well as the title, the front cover shows Mr birthday with a cake in one hand and a balloon in the other. He is surrounded by balloons, which have sparkly glitter in them. The back cover shows other books in the same collection (this edition shows 10 but other titles show 14). The back cover also has Mr birthday and Little Miss birthday standing on the 35th Anniversary banner. It also has a To and From with doted lined on the inside cover over the writing to fill in if this was to be a gift. Mr birthday is a blue and square with a red round nose... Read review

Advantages: Great fun short story for Children of all ages
Disadvantages: small writing

...and when the sun was out he would smile brighter than the sun. Everyone who was around Mr cheerful could not help but also be cheerful. Mr Funny would always feel so happy around him that he would pull a funnier face than usual which always made Mr cheerful laugh out loud. One day when Mr Cheerful was out fir his walk he bumped into Little Miss Splendid, would he be able to make her smile or would he loose his own smile and stop being cheerful? MY OPINION This is a super addition to our Mr Men library, the story is fun and has been written in plain simple words which makes it easy for my 3 year old to follow. The book is accompanied by nice bright pictures which help to explain the story to younger listeners. The book is laid out in a very simple way as with all the books in the collection with the writing on plain white pages... Read review
