On March 1, Egmont will publish the 47th Mr Men and Little Miss book, called "Mr Nobody."It's an original Roger Hargreaves character, printed 20 years ago and discovered amidst archive material.
"My father would be delighted that Mr Nobody has returned to be enjoyed by new Mr Men fans," says Adam Hargreaves, Roger's son. "He's invisible so it's no surprise that he's been elusive."
More than 100 million Mr Men titles have been sold worldwide since they were first published 39 years ago. The rights to Mr Men and Little Miss are owned by Chorion.
