Mr. Topsy-Turvy (Mr. Men Classic Library)

Product Information

Mind you there are probably some things that Mr Topsy Turvey does that we shouldn't imitate, such as getting off the wrong side of a train (if that is possible since these days we have automatic doors, and even those doors that aren't automatic won't open no matter how hard with try – unless of course we happen to have a key). How this geezer walks around with a hat placed like that is one epic sense of balance, or an awkward walking posture, but anyway, I don't think reality and Mr Men come in the same sentence!

What if we don't like sport, or what if our heroes are a little different – say a scientist, or an science-fiction author. An extraordinary character ; everything about him was either upside down, or inside out, or back to front.

The cover may have some limited signs of wear but the pages are clean, intact and the spine remains undamaged. He spent a year working in his father's laundry and dry-cleaning business before starting out in advertising. The book as many different themes which run throughout its length yet it manages never to detract from keeping a great story, a thing which I feel some other great novels do quite a lot. The book itself describes the very intriguing and complex mind of Mr Topsy-Turvy and shows him to be a character who single handedly says no against society's rigours.

This was particularly the case at school where we would all be encouraged to play sport, and the people that did really well at sport tended to be the school heroes.

I’m grateful to Roger Hargreaves for brightening up my childhood with both his Mr Men and the Timbuctoo series of books.There seems to be this attitude in our society that we must all be interested in the same things, and if we are not interested in such things then there is something wrong with us.

He rents a room in a hotel, speaking to the hotel manager the wrong way around, "Afternoon good, I'd room a like. Well, I'm currently sitting on the Eurostar about 75 meters under the English channel, and since I am waiting for my computer to copy some files over I thought it might be a good time to read another Mr Men book. The book excels at making children question why they do what they do, and how different some of his behaviour is. Although the idea did not win the competition, Roger Hargreaves liked the idea so much he wrote to Marc Penfold saying he would use the idea.It seems as if this development of a cult of personality around our sporting heroes certainly occurred at a young age, though it tended to have more to do with our peers as opposed to our teachers.
