Win a Copy of Mr. Mean!

Mr. Mean lives up to his name. He lived in what could’ve been a nice house, but wasn’t.

It had no pictures, curtains, carpets nor fires. He made his furniture out of old orange boxes and complained about the price of nails. He has a tiny appetite so he only eats very small meals, usually only one meal a day which isn’t much at all.

He never spends a penny of his money so he keeps his money in a box in a cupboard in his kitchen. He is so mean he gives his brother a piece of coal for Christmas.

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

One day an old rather fat and very wordy wizard pays Mr. Mean a visit and asks him for a glass of water (even though Mr. Mean doesn’t have any glasses because they break easily and they can be expensive) to which Mr. Mean replies with a rude “No!” The wizard teaches him a valuable lesson that he is soon not to forget which he starts by magicking all his money in a wooden box into a box full of potatoes which upsets Mr. Mean so then the wizard turns all the potatoes back into money again.
