McDonalds Mr Men Little Miss Happy Meal Books 2016 Australia and New Zealand

McDonalds Mr Men and Little Miss happy meal books were available at McDonalds restaurants in Australia in July and August 2016 and in New Zealand during August and September 2016. There were 10 different Mr Men Little Miss readers to collect to make up the full set each featuring a favourite Mr Men or Little Miss character.

The McDonalds Mr Men Little Miss promotion ran instead of happy meal toys in Australia and New Zealand for 5 weeks to mark 45 years of Roger Hargreaves iconic book series. In a media release by McDonalds it was announced that around 650,000 Mr Men Little Miss books were distributed in New Zealand by McDonalds during the promotion while across the Tasman in Australia several million Mr Men readers were given away.

Collectors Note 
The same set of Mr Men Little Miss books were promoted in Singapore in 2016 and in the UK. This series was not promoted in the USA.

One of the cool things about this promotion is that the dedicated happy meal boxes had character-themed push out Mr Men Little Miss bookmarks that could also be used as stands to display the books on as you can see from the image below. Of course most of these bookmarks are lost now as only McDonalds collectors who had the foresight to retain these are likely to have kept them.
