Reviews

[Calista]

Miss Brainy is actually smart and able to answer people's questions. We see several of the Mr. Men in the story and she makes her way to Cleverland and there she meets animals like Elephant, Lion, and Pig.

Nephew loved seeing the Pig in the Tree. A pig was stuck in the tree and needed help getting out of it. He loved seeing that and it made him giggle. He also loved to see the red lion. He thought that was cute. He had fun with this and he gave this 4 stars. Its all about the pig in the tree.

[Abbie]

Once again copying Chez and reading a kids book. I didn’t think little miss brainy was all that brainy

[Siobhan]

Ah, Mr Men and Little Miss, how wonderful you are!

These books made up so much of my childhood. No matter what I would go ahead and pick one up. I worked my way through them all a couple of times. Each one has a wonderful story for the child to engage with, each character being fun to read.

Everyone has a bias for their favourite character, yet every book is delightful.

[Les Wilson]

A new one on me but very enjoyable for our family read.

[Alannah Clarke]

I absolutely loved these Mr Men and Little Miss books. I remember getting them from my granny every week. There was so much from these simple characters, I remember filling my little bookshelf with all these books making sure I had got them all in right order. I wish I still had these books but somehow most of them got lost with many house moves or my mum gave the rest away. If I ever have kids, I will make sure they get the chance to experience these wonderful, colourful books.

[τλιϓλ]

What a story, well full of clever information just like the character ehm ^_~

[Jo]

The best bit, alas, was Mr Messy's cameo.

[Alex]

I enjoyed this book because I like to be smart. I also enjoyed this book because Little Miss Brainy was super duper smart.

[Meredith]

Little Miss Brainy discovers that answering questions can cause unforeseen problems.

[Sean Harding]

Another classic from Hargreaves as I now have ten books to go to complete the series. It has been very enjoyable, and this is no exception, a great time to be had for all readers. I wonder if Alex will like or dislike being brainy. These things keep me awake at night.

[Jill]

Gave me a good laugh at the end!

[Cat {Pemberley and Beyond}]

The first book in this series I've ever read! Despite not being a member of the target audience, it was a pleasant enough read. Short, slightly silly, and well illustrated.

[Slow Man]

Sometimes, being less clever will save your life.

[Kylie Abecca]

Being intelligent isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Poor little Miss Brainy.

[Rose Rosetree]

Faster than you can scratch your head, trying to figure out the character of Little Miss Brainy...

She tells you, herself, about her particular form of hyper-intelligence: Simply by sharing her wisdom.

Goodreader, you know the saying, "One man's meat is another man's poison."?

Like that... One sentence from Little Miss Brainy just might be enough to make you feel that you are really, really clever.

Perhaps a bit more sarcastic than the other Little Miss books I've read so far, yet devastating!
FIVE SMART STARS to Roger Hargreaves!

[Jade]

I'm of the opinion that all of the books in these series are quaint. HOWEVER this one is not my favourite. I suppose the intension is to give the rude know-it-all their comeuppance (much like what happened with Mr Clever) but it comes across more like no-good-deed-goes-unpunished here.

Little Miss series # 26

Little Miss Brainy wants to be where the brainy people are!


Read with my daughter after reading Mr. Tickle from the '1001 Children's Books to Read Before You Grow Up' list.

[Shahrun]

Little Miss Brainy’s smarts gets her into and thankfully out of many different situations. They say no knowledge is wasted I suppose.

[Danny]

Little miss brainy is clever and brainy

[Makayla’s Library]

Good book worth the read

[Dane Cobain]

Little Miss Brainy is super cool and a pretty good role model.

[Roland]

This book just stops instead of having a proper ending.

είναι καλή η κυρία Σοφή

[Poppy Thorpe]

A good story. Not only is little Miss Brainy brainy, she's also a fast leaner!

[Maria Carmo]

Books to read with Grand Daughters.

[Mr H]

Little Miss Brainy is annoying and not brainy in the slightest. It’s a two from me.
