Two New Mr. Men Little Miss Characters Announced
Farshore and Sanrio announce that they have added two new characters to the
universe of Mr. Men Little Miss, the bestselling children’s book series.
Mr. Fib and Little Miss Surprise will join the classic range on 12th September 2024, over fifty
years after Mr. Tickle, the very first Mr. Men book, was published. This isn’t one of Mr Fib’s
tall tales as he’s really part of the gang and Little Miss Surprise is surprised and delighted to
be joining them too!
Adam Hargreaves, author, said : ‘It’s always fun creating new characters to add to the series,
although I’ve got a way to go to catch up with my dad. A Mr Fib has been rattling around in
my imagination for a long while and Little Miss Surprise, of course, popped into my head
right out of the blue!’
Silvia Figini, COO of Sanrio – EMEA, India and Oceania, and Mr. Men – Worldwide said: “We
are thrilled to introduce two new characters to the Mr. Men Little Miss family, marking the
first additions since our 50th anniversary. By highlighting distinct personality traits, these
characters help both adults and children connect with them and reflect on their own
emotions. We are confident that you will instantly adore them ! ’
Emily Campan, Publisher, Farshore, said: ‘We are so delighted to be welcoming two new
additions to the Mr. Men Little Miss line up in 2024. We really wanted our two new
characters to reflect the world and personality traits children might encounter in real life,
and I think our two new friends meet that brief completely. I can’t wait for the rest of the
world to meet them!’
Mr. Fib is the smartest, strongest and funniest Mr. Men of all. Well, so he says, but don’t
believe everything you hear! Mr. Fib fibs to impress people, but his fibs are getting bigger
and bigger, and one day he goes too far and his friends are upset. Can Mr. Fib learn to tell
the truth?
Little Miss Surprise loves nothing better than surprises, and never knows what each day may
bring. Life certainly isn’t predicable when Little Miss Surprise is around! But is Mr. Quiet
ready for one of her surprising days out?
