Win A Copy of Mr. Topsy-Turvy From the Mr. Men Collection!

Mr. Topsy-Turvy does everything the wrong way around. One day he comes to the town where the reader lives.

He rents a room in a hotel, speaking to the hotel manager the wrong way around, "Afternoon good, I'd room a like." The next day, he confuses the taxi driver with his backwards speaking, causing an accident, buying a pair of socks and putting them on his hands, then he disappears, but everything is still topsy-turvy. Everybody still speaks topsy-turvy, and the reader is asked to say something topsy-turvy.

Like Wow have a copy of this wonderful book to give away!

Mr. Topsy-Turvy originated from a competition run by Roger Hargreaves to find a new Mr. Men character and was an idea by Marc Penfold who created Mr. Upside Down and a story in which the character lived in a backwards world. 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.

Closes 20th August
