Mr. Funny is one of the more surreal of the Mr. Men books. Mr. Funny lives a very odd life. His house is a tea pot. He drinks toast for breakfast and drives around town in a shoe. As with many of the Mr. Men books, the story follows Mr. Funny through the course of a day, starting with breakfast and going through the course of a day, usually with a trip into town.

Not the finest Mr Men book - although at least Mr Funny goes for a drive rather than a walk, a major difference in plot development!
It does teach kids that laughter is the best medicine, and that perhaps animals aren't all overjoyed to be incarcerated in zoos.
Given the title, this book had so much potential, yet was ultimately slightly disappointing. There are far better Mr Men books out there.

When very tiny Luke used to call him "Ha Man" because he had a little battery operated Mr Funny who chortled happily when you bashed his hat. Reading the story with Ha Man to hand was fun, but this isn't a top-notch Mr Men story otherwise.

Oh so funny... well according to little miss who now seems to be basing her jokes on this sort of funny. This is actually one of the better Mr Men I've read recently although Mr Quite Amusing is too big to fit on the cover!

This book is really funny, Mr. Funny ( A character from the story ) tells lot of funny jokes. He even tells funny jokes in poems too, I think this is a good book! You should read it too!

This one and Mr. Mischief are my son's favorites in this series. I actually remember reading these to my little brother when he was small. (His favorite was Mr. Silly!)

I read this whole series as a kid, mom had a friend from England who brought them over whenever Stateside. I have quite a few at the moment, rather than list them all I will just blanket comment here. These are such simple and fun little characters that while not remembering details, always brings a smile to my face when I see them again!

Mr Funny lives in a teapot and drives a shoe. Sometimes he eats a daisy sandwich and drinks a glass of toast. He's so funny that he visits the zoo to cheer up depressed animals.

Can Mr. Funny cheer up the zoo animals?
Cute. He reminds me of my brother-in-law.
