Customer Reviews

Mr. Tickle does more than make you laugh unwillingly....

Mr. Tickle makes you laugh WILLINGLY. I know, I know. You are saying, "But I don't like to be tickled. And I don't want my children to feel that tickling is socially appropriate." I had similar reservations before approaching Mr. Tickle, but I ordered it anyway. Mr. Tickle gets his just rewards, let me assure you, but in the meantime, he seduces readers into the world of Mr. Men. He does not just Tickle the people in his town. No, that is more...Sesame Street (The Tickler, The Man Who Starts with the Letter T, Volume 13, I think, of The Sesame Street Library). Mr. Tickle helps the people of his town BOND TOGETHER. He is that slippery sort of antagonist who acts as a protagonist. Britain called for a hero, and Mr. Tickle answered the phone.

Mr. Tickle My favorite Roger Hargreaves book

I loved reading this book to my grandchildren. Even my husband was listening and enjoyed hearing this cute story. I shared it with my neighbor and her grandchildren wanted her to reread it over and over. Little Miss Mischief mentions Mr. Tickle also in the story and a great follow-up book to go along with it. All of the Mr. Men books are great fun to read, and I will keep them on hand for any little one who will sit still to listen to me read it to them. I enjoy the stories as much as the children do.

Thought Provoking

Back in college I got a job as a summer janitor at the local elementary school. One of the things I had to do was clean up in the library. I took this time as an opportunity to catch up on some reading... in the form of the Mr. Men series. Mr. Tickle is a great book about a man who likes to tickle. If you like to laugh, this book is for you. If you like to tickle, this book is for you. If you are a mean spirited and grumpy person, perhaps you should try another book

Very cute

I remember reading this book a long time ago, and I loved it. I still do. Mr. Tickle has always been my favorite Mr. Men character because he liked to have fun by tickling people. In an episode of the Mr. Men and Little Miss show, Mr. Small got stuck in a tree, and Mr. Tickle used his long arms to get Mr. Small down. That shows that even Mr. Tickle knows there's a time to be silly and a time to be serious. I'd recommend this book to kids, because it's wholesome, something that a lot of books today aren't.

A Book you'll remember

Mr. Tickle was one of my favorite books as a child. Whenever my dad it to me he would enphsise all the parts where Mr. Tickle tikled people by tickling me. If you have young children, this book is a must. It'll give them memories to charish.
