A very silly, topsy-turvy tale that I’m sure will delight a little one. Nice bright illustrations to accompany the story.

Re-read

I interpret this Mr Men story as one of culture clash, followed by the change of influence.

At the end of this story, the smallest member of the household wished me ”Night good.”

Good old Mr Topsy Turvey joins the Mr Men Marathon finally as I have now read the first eleven books and filled in another gap. 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!

Everything is so upside down and back to front for Mr. Topsy-Turvy that even is words come out backwards. It is so powerful that the people around him begin saying things backwards as well. Mr Topsy comes to the real world.

Cute book and I like Mr. Topsy-Turvy who makes you examine the norms around you. My nephew is a fan as well. He gives him 5 stars.

Ah, Mr Men and Little Miss, how wonderful you are!

These books made up so much of my childhood. No matter what I would go ahead and pick one up. I worked my way through them all a couple of times. Each one has a wonderful story for the child to engage with, each character being fun to read.

Everyone has a bias for their favourite character, yet every book is delightful.
