Story
Mr. Chatterbox in the books
Mr. Chatterbox is a person who can't stop talking. He will talk on and on, even to himself. He talks leaving the mailman late delivering all his mail, and causing Mr. Bowler, the hatter, to come home late to cold dinner. Mr. Bowler sells Mr. Chatterbox a magic hat that will grow if Mr. Chatterbox talks too much. It grows until the bottom reaches Mr. Chatterbox's feet. Now Mr. Chatterbox talks less.

Trivia
- In Mr. Men and Little Miss
- Mr. Chatterbox claims that wearing a green hat is one of his hereditary traits. He says that his father wore a green hat, his grandfather wore a green hat, and his great-grandfather wore a green hat.
- He broadcasts a talk show called Chatterbox Radio on 95.7 FM.
- Him and Little Miss Curious seemed like good friends, since Mr. Chatterbox would answer all of her questions, until he lost his voice and Miss Curious just left him behind saying it's waste of time to be with someone who wouldn't answer her questions.
- In earlier prints of Mr. Men Books, Mr. Chatterbox was incorrectly shown to have a blue hat on the back cover with the other Mr. Men characters.
