Mr. Cheerful front cover

Never has Mr. Cheerful been without a smile. From breakfast in the morning to his bath at night. He was even happy when it rained! When he met Mr. Funny, he was so happy that he pulled off a funnier face than he usually does. One day, he runs into Little Miss Splendid who begins to smile, but then complains about Mr. Cheerful not raising his hat. For the first time in his life, Mr. Cheerful lost his smile - and blushed bright red. Miss Splendid finally talks him into raising his hat, showing the total of only three hairs on his head. Miss Splendid tells Mr. Cheerful that it is his big bright smile that everyone loves, not how many hairs he has on his head. So from that day on, Mr. Cheerful was once again, never without a smile. And everyone he passes leaves with a smile. There's only one thing left to say... hats off to Mr. Cheerful!

Trivia[]

  • He has been embarrassed by his three hairs hidden in his hat twice. (In his book and Mr. Cheerful Doffs His Hat)
  • He originated from France. (This explained why Mr. Tickle's hat was green. Mr. Tickle's hat was colored green in the French Mr. Men and Little Miss books.)
  • His 2017 McDonald's minifigure actually has Mr. Cheerful showing the three hairs on his head
  • Both he and Mr. Happy have the same name in the Dutch language.
