Mr. Christmas (Mr. Men & Little Miss Celebrations)

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. Ambiguously Human: The Mr. Men and Little Misses are visually a fantastic race of colorful Living Polyhedrons, but they apparently are human beings. If anything, they look like actual human beings in-universe, but look like talking shapes to us since they're meant to be representations of the virtues and vices anyone in real life can have. Skintone Sclerae: Almost none of the Mr. Men or Little Misses are drawn with whites to their eyes (Mr. Sneeze is a notable exception).

Unwanted Assistance: Little Miss Helpful has a tendency to make things worse when she tries to help people.

When She Smiles: Mr. Grumpy in the aforementioned Road Trip book. During his trip across the United States with the other characters, he does nothing but complain. At the end of the book, he admits he had a good time because being grumpy makes him happy, causing him to break out in a happy smile. Mr. Jelly is the 15th book in the Mr. Men series. Mr. Jelly is afraid of everything, such as the snapping of a twig. He often hides under the covers. One day, he finds a tramp sleeping in the woods, whom he is afraid of until the vagabond teaches him to count to ten whenever he feels nervous. This makes Mr. Jelly a calm fellow and he rarely hides under the covers now.

Fake Crossover: This series is a whimsical recasting of Doctor Who characters and typical plotlines into a lighthearted children's book universe, not meant as canon to say the least! Jill Shilling - Little Miss Star, Little Miss Late, Miss Scatterbrain, Elves, Little Miss Magic, Queen of MiseryLand. Mr. Wrong meets Mr. Right, who teaches him to mend his wrong ways. Now you might think that's the end of the story, but it isn't. Do you really want to know what happened? The more right Mr. Wrong became, the more wrong Mr Right became. Isn't that extraordinary? Mr. Mean sends his brother a piece of coal for Christmas. When Mr. Mean reforms and becomes generous at the end of the book, what does he send his brother? Two pieces of coal.

Mr. Men Christmas Special

The only one who averts this is Mr. Snow, who's simply a snowman built and brought to life by Father Christmas.

While dozing in a chair in the garden, Mr Lazy is wakened by two humans, Mr Busy note not the title character of a later Mr. Men book and Mr Bustle, who subject him to a gruelling routine of housework and a very long walk, and then a run. When one of the men blows a whistle to make him start running, the whistle turns out to be the whistling kettle boiling in the kitchen (which takes two hours in Sleepyland). It had all been a terrible dream! When Mr Lazy then falls asleep (yet again) when he sits down for his breakfast, we are left with an ambiguous ending. An unidentified voice says "Wake up, Mr Lazy! WAKEUPWAKEUPWAKEUP!" Is this another instance of Or Was It a Dream?, or is Mr Lazy simply repeating the dream he had before? Retcon: Mr. Snooty is described as the rudest person, though this was changed to "second" rudest once Mr. Rude was added. I Shall Taunt You: Missy constantly taunts Dr. Twelfth for being "old and slow" during The Chase. This figures into her Evil Plan in that goading him into trying to catch her is a way of distracting him from noticing she's leaving Cybermats in her wake. Mr. Worry: after a wizard has made sure that none of Mr. Worry's worries will come to pass, after a happy week he has no worries at all. But on Monday morning, he is a worried Mr Man again. Why? Do you really want to know what happened? He is worried that he has nothing to worry about. Dr. Eleventh has Eleven and River Song trying to retrieve "an item of great importance". Turns out it's Eleven's fez. River is not amused.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. Little Miss Splendid does not like to talk to or do anything with commoners and is very bratty and egotistical. It's downplayed after her first appearance. Improvised Umbrella: In the Mr Men Annual No. 3, Mr Mean is sheltering from the rain under a newspaper, as he is much too mean to buy an umbrella. An elderly lady Mrs Washer asks for a sheet of his newspaper, but he refuses. Later, after he has been taught a lesson by a wizard, he gives Mrs Washer half a sheet of his newspaper. Half a sheet, and it isn't even raining.
