Mr Men on Google



Yesterday was the 76th Birthday of Roger Hargreaves, the author and illustrator of the Mr Men and Little Miss books. I remember the excitement as a child when reading the books because they were brightly coloured, eye catching and the stories and character concepts were always amusing. 


Google have honored the anniversary by featuring the Mr Men and Little Miss characters on their Google Doodle (Google Icon). Google have pushed the boat out this year with the Google Doodles and have carried on with this, when you refreshed the page a new illustration appeared, which is nothing new for web design but Google have not done this before.  I must admit that refreshing the page over and over again to see if any new Mr Men would pop up became very addictive! My favourite Mr Men Google Doodle was the Little Miss Sunshine version (below).
