Font of Mr Men books on Front page

I wonder if you can help.

Does anyone know what font the Mr Men Books have on their Front Page?

I am making a Mr Men outfit for tomorrow's book day at school, and want to try to recreate it as close as possible, with the Mr Men title at the top.

I have tried several of the fonts on the computer but none look quite right.

Many thanks

    Do you have a scanner? If you can scan the font you can upload it to a site called whatthefont.com which will either tell you what the font is, or you can post it on their forum and somebody may know it.

    I HATE WORLD BOOK DAY!!!!!!!

    Have just got the saucepans out to put on a belt for my Mr Saucepan Man. DSs was white, now orange t-shirt drying from the dyeing process for Percy Jackson, DDs fairy costume hanging on her wardrobe ready to go.

    I'm a grumpy old woman :D

    Hope you find the font that matches closely - just found this on google

    I'm so glad my DD is old enough for Jaqueline Wilson books, there are so many characters who wear normal clothes :D

    This may help - linky

    It is either Univers, Optima or Helvetica depending on the book.

    I remember getting a cherub T-shirt specially printed one year for DS2 as he stressed about these days so much. DS3 is going as the The Billionaire Boy in jeans and T-shirt I wanted to pin monopoly money on him but he said no.
