My penultimate reading of the year is that of one of the lesser known of the Mr. Men tales - Mr Christmas !

 

MR CHRISTMAS 

 

What is the name of the postman?

 

Why does Father Christmas need help? What can Mr Christmas do for him?

 

What does Mr Christmas need from Wizard Winterbottom?

 

Do you think a flying teapot would be a sensible mode of transport? Why?

 

Who got a cookery book?

 

What did Mr Topsy-Turvy do with his present?

 

Where did Father Christmas get into a bit of a problem?

 

Make a list of some of the other Mrs Men and Little Miss characters and think of suitable presents for them.

 

Have a look out for some of the other winery characters (Little Miss Christmas, Mr Snow) as well as some of the special Mr Men Books retelling famous other tales and explaining festive traditions !
