The Mr. Men series is just brilliant! Roger Hargreaves does such a great job putting together stories about characters with particular attributes and places them in situations where these attributes are tested. Mr. Tickle was the first in the series and there really were no tests for this character with long, thin, wavy arms. He almost always got what he wanted! He could stay in his bed and get food from his refrigerator. He would go to different places and just tickle random people without them knowing about it, the funniest being the schoolteacher that he snuck up on in the middle of class. The only downside to this story was the execution in which this particular story was illustrated. While we get a view of the teacher in the classroom, we do not see Mr. Tickle tickling him in what would have been an extremely hysterical sight! While photos may not be able to capture every extraordinary moment, illustrations can and certainly should, especially if it is a creation. Aside from that gripe, Mr. Tickle told an extraordinary, laugh out loud story!
