My favourite Mr Men book was Mr Fussy, it's only just occurred to me how much he looks like Adolf Hitler. Was that on purpose?
If that isn't a thinly veiled reference to the death camps I don't know what is. I'll now have to do some research to see which other dictators and despots are caricatured in these books.

This is Mr Fussy's synopsis: Mr Fussy is so fussy that he'll polish you, scrub you, straighten you, clean you, mend you, dust you, iron you, tidy you up, and throw you away."
