One of the most recognizable Mr. Men characters alongside a great uplifting message.

Once Mr. Happy realises that Mr. Miserable was on his own, he instantly invited him back to his house for a chat.

A nice simple message of reaching out to the lonely and vulnerable, we all need to be more like Mr. Happy.

one of the most adorable series of childrens' books!

I loved this book when I was a kid.

Great brightly coloured illustration and a v sweet message

My son has been obsessed with smiley faces since an early age. Smiley face balloons, balls, stickers, shirts... all things smiley rate way high for my Sam. This water tower has fascinated him for a few years now:

I blame all this joy on the anti-depressants that must have seeped into my breast milk.

Whatever the case, he's a super happy kid that loves a good smiley face.

His first encounter with the Mr. Happy books happened to be... not a book. In search of valentines, he saw a box of Mr./Little Miss valentines, with smiley on the front, and was instantly smitten. I asked if he had seen the books at his school, and he replied no. He just wanted them because of that happy face! So I got the valentines for him and promptly got some of these books for him. (Mr. Happy, Mr. Strong, Mr. Noisy)

I recalled them for my childhood, and it was a delight re-reading them with my boy.

The stories are silly, the illustrations are bright and bold...

While I feel it's silly to give this book (and entire series) a 5-star, "it was AMAZING" rating, I have to. Because when I peek in on my kid at night and he's zonked out with a smile on his face and one of these books in his hand, it's ... well... it's amazing.

awesome book.

He's too happy and he meets someone else that is too sad and he turns to too happy.

I have very fond memories of these books which were first published in England in 1971. The year my sister was born & I turned six. How thrilled I am that they are still popular after all this time!

Make this the new Harvard textbook! Such a great lesson

Good fun as these nearly always are.

These were some of my favorite books as a kid. I'm so excited to see them again!!

My twin sister went away to collage a couple of days ago. Now I'm cleaning our play room (something I would have done four years ago if I were able to get her to help me with it) and I found this book. I remember once in preschool the teaches got a bunch of free books so all of the kids got to pick one out and she picked this one. I wasn't too impressed with it at the time, but she loved it and it was very inspirational too her. After I found it and read it again, I planed to give it to her but then I remembered that she won't be home for mouths. My dad put together a box of stuff that she forgot to bring, and we put it in the box. I hope she is happy to get it.

She called a few days later and said that she was very excited to get it and showed it to all of her new friends.
