Story[]
Little Miss Scatterbrain in the Books.
Little Miss Scatterbrain First Edition
Little Miss Scatterbrain can never remember the names of the other Mr. Men and Little Misses, and calls them by the wrong names. She can't even remember the name of her own cottage. Little Miss Scatterbrain also goes to the bank and tries to get sausages instead of money, and later calls the butcher "Mr. Beef" instead of "Mr. Pork."

Trivia[]
- In Little Miss Scatterbrain Puts Everything in Turmoil, it is revealed that her birthday is sometime in July. However, she accidentally celebrates in April every year.
- In Happy Birthday Little Miss Scatterbrain, she has the 12th of a particular month circled on her calendar to remind her about her birthday, so that may mean that her birthday is on the 12th of July.
- Even though Little Miss Scatterbrain is the twelfth book in the Little Miss series, she is placed seventeenth in the Little Miss Library, between Little Miss Lucky and Little Miss Star which were the eighteenth and nineteenth books in the Little Miss series, respectively, though they are respectively placed sixteenth and eighteenth in the Little Miss Library.
- In the original British version of the 1983 Little Miss TV series, she has a more daydreamy airheaded sounding voice.
- In the US dub of the 1995 series, she has a rather deep voice, possibly as a nod to her forgetful personality.
- The U.S. version of her book and the U.S. dub of her own episode, while following the same exact plot, has its own differences. Such as, in the scene with the bank manager, in the book, the pound sterling was changed to U.S. dollar quarters. In her own episode, this was changed to U.S. dollars entirely. And while Percy Pork grunts before he speaks in the U.S. narration of the book, this doesn't happen in the cartoon.
- The reasoning behind Mr. Scatterbrain's appearance in The Mr. Men Show is that executive producer Eryk Casemiro stated that the female characters in the series should remain mostly positive. [1]
