I read this to a grade 4 class, they enjoyed the story about the Christmas Party that Miss Shy was afraid to go to. We talked about how some people are very social and outgoing, and some people find those things scary. They enjoyed the book and it provided a very interesting discussion afterwards.

Little Miss Shy's fear of blushing almost prevents her from attending Mr. Happy's Christmas party.

Young readers apprehensive about social events may relate to Little Miss Shy's painful sense of embarrassment, and watching her overcome her fear will reassure them that things can turn out all right.

Again, not a lot to report. Another example of Hargreaves thinking up a title and not really having an entertaining idea regarding the plot.

Fun quick read

A cute bedtime story for our five year old on the run up to Christmas. Wasn't the most exciting story but it did the job!

I liked this part of the series. It is so cute. It is a short, simple story for children at Christmas time.

This is a fantastic Mr Men book dealing with Little Miss Shy, the complete introvert, and the challenge of being invited to a party. Fantastic, totally relatable and fun!

Bought this for a Christmas present but couldn't resist reading it myself.
Still as charming as when I was little.
