Story
Mr. Small is very small, so small he lives under a daisy in Mr. Robinson's garden. He eats very enormous meals with little food, and talks to Walter the Worm about getting a job. He meets Mr. Robinson who tries to get him a job. They try putting mustard in mustard jars in a restaurant, which is not good because Mr. Small keeps falling into the jars. They try putting matches into matchboxes, no good either since he keeps getting shut in the boxes. The best job for somebody so small is writing children's books, and Mr. Small meets a friend of Mr. Robinson who writes children's books (referring to Roger Hargreaves), and writes a book all about himself. This Mr. Men book breaks the fourth wall.
The Mr. Men Show
In the 2008 TV series The Mr. Men Show, Mr. Small is considerably larger, is egg-shaped and is an orange color. A tall, black floating top hat replaces his blue bowler, and he now wears a pair of white sneakers.
He has a Welsh accent in the US version, and a typical English accent in the UK dub. He is voiced by Phil Lollar in the US version. and Keith Wickham in the UK dub.
His best friend is Mr. Nosey, and they live together in a observatory with a large telescope coming out from the roof. He is also small enough to fit under Mr. Nosey's arm.
He is first seen in Physical.
