Mr. Men Collection from The Works

Both of my children love to read Mr. Men and often borrow it from their school library.  Having a personal set of the Mr. Men collection has always on their wishlist.  It’s nice to know that The Works do sell them individually and as a set as to buy individually will cost much more than that.  Each book costs £2.50 each and so it works out much cheaper to buy it as a box set for £39.99.
