It all started with a tickle. Roger Hargreaves’ son Adam asked him what a tickle looked like. In response, Roger drew a small orange man with extraordinarily long arms that could reach anywhere and tickle anyone. Mr Tickle, the first of the Mr Men, was born. Mr Tickle was soon joined by Mr Greedy, Mr Happy, Mr Nosey, Mr Sneeze and Mr Bump. The books were an instant hit and Roger went on to create many more Mr Men and Little Miss characters. What Roger really wanted was to make children laugh,which is probably why his own favourite character is Mr Silly.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Being of a similar age to the author, I could totally relate to the era she was raised in. I too, was raised with domestic help and have guilty memories of wishing things were different, even though I was only six.
Lost Property is written with emotion and leaves you lingering with images of a troubled past. Coupled with this is a feeling of hope and courage as issues are addressed. An excellent local read.
Supreme use of the English language in describing sex and culture and how they function together, how they transform and inform our lives. How we are subject to our biological whims, and how culture has attempted to be champion over our bestial nature's. It's truly a spectacular book
