Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Mr Bump

Mr Bump was a very unlucky individual having many an accident. Covered in wraps, you would need to watch yourself around him.

Mr Bump was number 6 in the series.

2. Who said "Bah... it's the start of yet another horrible day"?

Answer: Mr Grumble

Mr Grumble looked like a grumble. Long and purple with the facial expression that could do with cheering up. His green hat made him look even more grumpy.

Mr Grumble was number 41 of the 2014 Mr Men series.

3. Which Mr Men character was told off by Little Miss Splendid when he forgot to raise his hat to her, a lady at that, therefore removing his smile and making him very embarrassed?

Answer: Mr Cheerful

Little Miss Splendid was a bit mean towards Mr Cheerful, but being a lady she had a point when Mr Cheerful failed to raise his hat. It was no wonder he felt a little bit embarrassed ,after all Mr Cheerful is a thoroughly nice guy.

Mr Cheerful was number 43 of the 2014 Mr Men series.

Answer: Mr Tickle

Roger Hargreaves came up with Mr Tickle in order for his son to go to sleep. His imagination was so good that soon after Mr Tickle was born other Mr Men came to life.

Mr Tickle indeed was number 1 in every series of Mr Men books.

Answer: Mr Grumble

The wizard who appears in many of the Mr Men books was getting fed up with Mr Grumble and his consistent moaning. Each time Mr Grumble grumbled the wizard turned him into a pig; eventually Mr Grumble got the message.

6. Having only three hairs on your head for some would mean disaster. Which character hid this lack of hair under a yellow and blue bowler hat?

Answer: Mr Cheerful

Mr Cheerful didn't raise his hat to Little Miss Splendid because he was actually embarrassed to have only three hairs on his head. Once it had been understood that he wasn't being rude Little Miss Splendid explained that it was his cheerful smile that everyone liked, not the fact he had only three hairs. Mr Cheerful from that day on raised his hat to everyone and... smiled.

7. Who fell off a boat when he went to the Seaside and had to be rescued by the lifeboat?

Answer: Mr Bump

Poor Mr Bump fell off his boat, but we all knew he would... didn't we?

Answer: Mr Tickle

Mr Tickle tickled everyone and everyone was caught off guard, but when you have extremely long arms I guess you can get away with anything.

9. Three of the Mr Men in this quiz wore a hat; which one was the odd one out?

Answer: Mr Bump

Mr Bump had bandages around his waist and his head but the other three wore hats. Mr Cheerful wore a yellow and blue bowler hat, which he always lifted now that he had no care for having three hairs.
Mr Tickle wore a blue bowler hat and Mr Grumble wore a green trilby.

10. Which one of the four Mr Men was the youngest?

Answer: Mr Cheerful

Mr Cheerful was published in 1990 as was Mr Grumble, but the fact they were numbers 43 and 41 respectively makes Mr Cheerful the youngest.
Mr Tickle and Mr Bump were both 'born' in 1971 making them much older than the other two.
