do you remember this children's book??

Question

This book was around back in the late 80's. It was part of a series in which there were, I want to say fruits and vegetables? and they wore hats. It was the kind of story that always had a moral at the end . I know these are some far sketched details but that is really all i can think of. There were certain characters and the only one i can remeber is one that was called Mr. Grouch or Mr. grumpy and he was purple. lol It was a small hard back book in different shapes and there were only a few cardboard pages. This is so frustrating to me because i can't think of the name of these series?! I am sorry for the bad details, but as i have said i am having a tough time remembering since i was all of 7 at the time. lol If anyone can think of any kind of books like this i would greatly appreciate it! thanx

Answer 1

I think you're talking about the Mr. Men and Little Miss characters?
Here's a website with pictures of them:

I vaguely remember reading these books too...they are simple shapes that represent the trait the character embodies.

Answer 2

My first thought was "The Garden Gang" series published by Ladybird books; they were all fruit and veg. However, judging from the names of the characters, (all starting Mr) I think they might not be fruit/veg at all, and the series of books you're looking for is very probably "The Mr Men" by Roger Hargreaves.
Here they are on Amazon. Take a look at a few and see if these are what you're looking for:

Answer 3

The Mr. and Little Miss books. I didn't know they were vegatbles, i just thought they were odd shapes and bright colors to keep kids intrested.

My mom bought me Mr. Messy because I didn't like to clean my room when i was little. I loved that book so much she would buy me diffrent ones when I kept my room clean for the week.
