Story

Little Miss Naughty in the books

Little Miss Naughty likes playing practical jokes. She awakens one day, thinking it looks like a good day for being naughty. She knocks Mr. Uppity's hat off his head and jumps on it, and breaks Mr. Clever's glasses. She also runs off with Mr. Bump's bandages, wrapping them on Mr. Small. The Mr. Men hold a meeting to decide what to do. Mr. Small meets with Mr. Impossible, who can make himself invisible, and each time Little Miss Naughty tries to do something naughty, Mr. Impossible tweaks her nose. After a week it cures Little Miss Naughty of her naughtiness.

Little Miss Naughty First Edition

The Mr. Men Show

In the 2008 TV series The Mr. Men Show, she kept her purple color and shape, but now has curly pink hair, dark fuchsia nose, pink rosy cheeks, her bow is a lighter shade of green and is smaller and neater, and also has a Transylvanian accent in the U.S. version and a Bristol accent in the U.K version.

Her catchphrase is "Sometimes I just can't help myself." On occasion, her pranks always backfire on her in every episode. Her pranks are more elaborate and clever, such as in "Library" when she switched book covers to the point where Mr. Messy cleaned himself. In "Robots", she created a robot called Mr. Metal.

She is voiced by Alicyn Packard in the US version and Jo Wyatt (Season 1) and Teresa Gallagher (Season 2) in the UK version.

Trivia

General/book trivia

• In the US dub of Mr. Men and Little Miss, she speaks with a New Jersey accent. In the original UK broadcast, she spoke with a Birmingham accent.
• She appears to be a lot smaller in size in Mr. Men and Little Miss, being around the same size as Little Miss Twins.

The Mr. Men Show trivia

• She appears more in the second season than the first.
• She seems to like money and may be a little greedy when it comes to money, as seen in Canned Goods, Yard Work, and especially in Bugs.
• Like Mr. Bounce and Little Miss Magic, her video on the now-defunct official website is her first speaking appearance.
• Little Miss Trouble was considered for the series but Little Miss Naughy took the spot due to her being more of a prankster.
