Mr. Men is a series of 52 (only 43 published in English) children's books by Roger Hargreaves started in 1971. Little Miss was an accompanying series of 39 (only 30 published in English) books by the same author with female characters that started in 1981. After Hargreaves' death in 1988, his son, Adam Hargreaves, began writing and illustrating new stories involving the Mr. Men and Little Miss characters, including the creation of ten new characters, four of which were inspired by work Roger Hargreaves had produced before his death.
Each book in the original Mr. Men and Little Miss series introduced a different title character and their single dominant trait in order to convey a double simple moral lesson. The Mr. Men and Little Miss characters would frequently reappear in the later books of other characters. The books' simple and silly stories, with bright-colored, boldly drawn illustrations, made them quite popular, with sales over 100 million worldwide in 22 languages.
