Mr. Bounce is the twenty-second book in the Mr. Men series. Mr. Bounce is small and bounces around like a rubber ball, which makes life very difficult for him. One day, after banging his head on the ceiling from bouncing off a chair, Mr. Bounce has decided he's had it with all this bouncing about and decides to see the doctor about it. On the way however, he trips on a pebble and becomes a live tennis ball for two boys in a tennis court. After taking a bus to the doctor's, Mr. Bounce bounces into the doctor's office and into Dr. Makeyouwell's mid-morning coffee. After Mr. Bounce explains his problem, Dr. Makeyouwell gives him the cure for bouncing about: heavy red boots. Mr. Bounce wears the boots to bed that night. The next morning, he bounces out of bed, but the boots make him fall through the floor straight into the kitchen.
In the 2008 TV series The Mr. Men Show, he looks the same as in the books except his hat has a stripe on it. His bouncing about causes chaos for the other Mr. Men and Little Misses in Dillydale, especially when he's out in public. Mr. Bounce speaks with an Asian accent (Irish in UK version). His catchphrase is, "Hello! Goodbye!". He often speaks quickly. In the US and UK Versions, he is voiced by Sam Gold and Simon Greenall respectively.
Mr. Bounce appears under the titles Monsieur Bing (French), Don Saltarin (Spanish), Meneer Stuiter/Meneertje Stuiterbal (Dutch),  ?Ѧɦ? ϦѦϦЦǦĦ?˦? (Greek),  (Taiwan), Unser Herr Hupf (German) Senhor Saltit?o (Portuguese) and Mister Beag (Gaeilge)..

Mr. Bump is the sixth book in the Mr. Men series. Mr. Bump can't help having accidents. He takes a vacation and falls off a boat. Later, he falls into a deep hole at the beach. When he wants a job, the best job he can find is walking around and bumping into trees on Mr. Barley's apple orchard, making the apples fall off the trees.
In Mr. Bump Loses His Memory he falls out of his bedroom window and bumps his head, promptly causing him to lose his memory. He is told, by Mr. Muddle that his name is, in fact, Mr. Careful, thus encouraging our confused Mr. Bump to try several jobs for which great care is needed, such as carrying eggs and delivering milk in glass bottles. His memory is restored when he walks into a tree, causing him to fall into a river.
In the 2008 TV series The Mr. Men Show, Mr. Bump is a regular character. He kept his looks except one of his bandages is gone and is always having accidents, more often than not non-bump-related ones such as accidentally being cleaned in a car wash. Like Mr. Grumpy and Mr. Small, his favorite food is liverwurst sandwiches, as mentioned in the Beach episode. He lives in a square house which is olive, with a black chimney, arched windows and a bandaged roof. Often, Little Miss Whoops, his next-door neighbor and sister, or Little Miss Helpful is the cause of his accidents. His catchphrase in the show is, "Oh poopity-poop!" and "You'll never learn.", usually exclaimed when his situation turns bad. In the US and UK Versions, he is voiced by Aaron Albertus and Simon Greenall respectively.
Mr. Bump appears under the titles Monsieur Malchance (French), Don Pupas (Spanish), Meneer Pech/Meneertje Bots (Dutch),  ?Ѧɦ? ʦϦԦͦӦ?զ˦? (Greek),  (Taiwan), ???

Mr. Daydream is the thirteenth book in the Mr. Men series by Roger Hargreaves.
The story tells of a little boy named Jack. Jack is a nice boy, and he likes to daydream a lot! He is at school when his teacher is talking about history. He looks out the window and meets Mr. Daydream, who invites Jack to come on an adventure with him. They get on the back of a huge bird, and the bird flies them from place to place. In the jungle, a crocodile tricks them into using his back as a bridge, and tries to toss them into his mouth, reminiscent of what the fox did to The Gingerbread Man. The bird rescues them and takes Jack and Mr. Daydream to other places, such as the North Pole, and finally to the Wild West, where Mr. Daydream puts on a hat too big for him, and cannot see. He calls Jack's name from under the hat, and Jack realizes that it wasn't Mr. Daydream calling Jack's name, but his teacher. When the teacher says Jack has been daydreaming, the reader realizes daydreaming is more fun than history!
