Little Miss Curious appeared in the second season of ''[[The Mr. Men Show]]''. She now has a honey-yellow nose and freckles, she is a brownish orange color, her hair is a fluo-yellow blonde color, her bow resembles [[Little Miss Whoops]] (except it's dark teal), and her shape is changed from an oval to an extended rounded trapezoid. In Season 2, she didn't have any lines until the episode, [[Trees]]. She made short appearances in the episodes, [[Clean Teeth]] (her first appearance where she was shown at the end of the episode cleaning her teeth), [[Eyeglasses]] (appears on a plane), [[Gifts]], [[Dining Out]] (where she appears at the ice cream sundae parlor with Little Miss Chatterbox and Little Miss Helpful and Mr. Strong tries to serve them ice cream sundaes), [[Game Shows]], [[Sun & Moon]], [[Sneezes & Hiccups]], [[Skyscrapers]], [[Radio]], [[Cinema]] (where she appears in her car behind the drive movie theatre ticket booth), [[Pets]] (where she is shown cheering and running away from Little Miss Magic's magic fire-breathing goat, Nutmeg), [[Trees]] (where she speaks), [[Sand & Surf]] (where she is shown with a normal shaped ponytail instead her usual question mark shaped ponytail and she was also shown singing and dancing along with some of the other Mr. Men and Little Misses during Mr. Strong and Mr. Bump's 50's style music video, [[Beach Party A-Go-Go]]), [[Surprises]] (where she is shown shouting "SURPRISE!" and she is also shown with an orange nose as the creators probably forgot to colour in the nose on her), [[Parks]], [[Travel]] and [[Pests]] (where she appears in [[Little Miss Naughty]]'s ad for doing naughty things in the US version having a picnic with [[Mr. Quiet]]).

Story

Little Miss Curious in the books

Little Miss Curious just wants to know everything. She is very curious looking and has a question mark shaped ponytail and a curious nature. She lives in a really nice and curious looking house with a curious looking garden (that has question mark shaped trees) in a country called Nonsenseland.

She asked why do doors squeak but they are not grey with pink ears and long tails (she was probably referring to a mouse), but the door doesn't answer because doors can't speak. She then asks the worms why do they have bow ties in Nonsenseland. Then Mr. Nonsense shows up holding a sandwich filled with sand and she asks him why are sandwiches called sandwiches if they have don't have any sand in them, Mr. Nonsense says that he is eating a sand sandwich and that he is rather partial to sand because he also comes from Nonsenseland, where everyone and everything do things differently to anyone else and then he goes off saying "Happy birthday".

Little Miss Curious goes to the Nonsenseland Library to find a book that has everything that she wants to know, but the librarian becomes angry and scolds her for holding the queue to the counter and she asks her to leave. She then leaves the Nonsenseland Library then she sees Little Miss Careful wearing wellies and holding an umbrella and she wonders why she is wearing wellies and holding an umbrella if it's not raining. She then runs away in the end and the reader wonders where she is running off to!
