“Messy, not dressy”

From his house to his hair, Mr. Messy’s life is an unorganised messy muddle. But Mr. Messy doesn’t think he is messy, he just thinks everyone else in Dillydale is far too tidy.

“Sometimes I just can’t help myself”

Always playful and never mean, Little Miss Naughty is Dillydale’s number one prankster and loves playing tricks on her favourite target, Mr. Nervous.

“Here I go again”

While being able to bounce about looks like a lot of fun, not being able to keep two feet on the ground often causes Mr. Bounce all sorts of problems.

“I love fear”

Little Miss Scary takes great pleasure in scaring the innocent folk of Dillydale and spends much of her time creating spooky experiments, that never seem to end well.

“Good luck with that” Mr. Lazy has a collection of gadgets that are made to make his life as easy and lazy as possible, mainly from the comfort of his favourite place, the couch.

“Precise is nice”

Mr. Fussy is the fussiest person in Dillydale, but unfortunately he expects everyone to follow in his oh-so-perfect footsteps, and is left disappointed when they don’t.

“Crooked Cucumber!”

“Ask me if I care”

“I can’t hear you!”

“That reminds me of a song!”

Mr. Grumpy is always grumbling, complaining or muttering, and often finds himself involved in jobs better suited to a happier chap, which just makes him grumpier.

While most people choose their words carefully, not wanting to offend others, Mr. Rude is unable to hold anything back, including his many insults!

Mr. Noisy can’t do anything quietly. His walk is a stomp, his talking voice more resembles a footy match shout and his drum playing could wake a hibernating grizzly bear.

Little Miss Sunshine wakes up cheery every morning with a song in her heart and a smile on her face, and co-hosts a popular morning talk show with Mr. Happy.

“Tell me doctor, is this the end for me?”

“Just trying to be helpful”

“To make a long story short…”

*Sigh*

Oh poor Mr. Nervous, he’s a shaky ball of nerves who spends his day worrying his worst fears will come true, because unfortunately for him, they usually do.

Little Miss Helpful wants to help. She’s always first on the scene to start the problem solving, however her problem solving usually creates more problems than it solves!

Little Miss Chatterbox loves to talk. And talk. She believes she’s an expert on everything, convinced that everyone in Dillydale wants to hear about it. Even if they don’t.

Mr. Quiet likes things peaceful and pleasant on the ears, but finds himself in the middle of sticky situations that ideally require him to shout his way out of, if only he could. Flip th

e page

“Hmmph”

Mr. Stubborn does not like listening to other people’s opinion or suggestions, insists on doing things his way or no way, and is far too stubborn to ever admit he’s wrong.

“Just curious”

Mr. Nosy is a loveable lump who innocently pokes his nose into other people’s business in the nicest way possible, and his BFF (best friend forever) is Mr. Small.

“Good thing I came along”

Mr. Strong is a sweet and kind muscle man, who is always willing to lend his super strength to help those in need, and has nicknames for his favourite arm muscles.

“What’s going on up there?”

Mr. Small is so teeny tiny he is often overlooked, but he has a big booming voice and always offers a kind word or tip of his very tall top hat to passing strangers.

“Poopity Poop!”

Mr. Bump is the most accident-prone man in Dillydale, who buys bandages in bulk and is an emergency room regular, and lives next door to his sister, Little Miss Whoops.

“Hello down there!”

With his deep, deep voice from way up above, this gentle giant is so sweet and loveable you’ll want to give him a big cuddle; if only you could reach that high!

“Toast. Hamster. Macaroni”

Mr. Scatterbrain can’t have a normal conversation, his mind races in a thousand confusing different directions, and he always remembers his tasks a little too late.

“Why?”

Definition of curious: desirous of learning or knowing; inquisitive. Yep, that paints the perfect picture of this constant-questionasking Little Miss!

“Oh sure. I’m a trained professional” Watch out if the careless and clumsy Little Miss Whoops comes your way. She loves to help, but is a walking disaster who’s unaware of the chaos she leaves in her path.

“Isn’t it amazing?!”

She pops up in places with a magical POOF! With a wave of her wand and a rhyming spell, this Little Miss’s magic often turns into mishap.

“Gotta Boogie!”

“Good morning, Dillydale!”

“I think somebody needs a tickle…”

She’s sporty, fearless and often a menace to the safety of Dillydale. When Little Miss Daredevil takes a risk, she rarely does it without dragging her friends along with her.

Everything is just “Wonderful!” to Mr. Happy. Always with a smile on his face, a hungry lion could attack and Mr. Happy would still find the positive in the situation.

If somebody is feeling sad. If somebody is feeling mad. If somebody is feeling bad… then that somebody needs a tickle. And who better to do it than Mr. Tickle!

*ROTFLOL*

*Giggle, giggle, giggle*

(Roll on the floor laughing out loud)

“Why? Because I said so!”

With the most infectious laugh in Dillydale, Little Miss Giggles would find a pea on a plate funny and finds herself innocently LOLing at the most inappropriate times.

Mr. Funny DOES NOT SPEAK! The clown about town expresses his comedic conduct in silence – oh, except for the handheld horn he communicates with. Honk!

Whoa! If you don’t like being told what to do, then back away slowly when Little Miss Bossy is about. And don’t ever offer her a “no” for an answer; she won’t take it!

n w o r u o y e Mak

Cake

Make a party treat that will put a smile on everybody’s face! NOW make it!

Here’s what you need

STEP

Combine the flour, cocoa, sugar, vanilla and melted butter in a bowl. Now add the eggs and mix like mad! 2 eggs 3 tbs cocoa 250g butter, melted ½ cup castor sugar 1 tsp vanilla essence 1 cup self-raising flour Round cake tin Plastic wrap 100g soft red licorice 200g soft black licorice Yellow food colouring 1 x 500g packet of ready-made icing

STEP

Pour the chocolate cake mix into the round cake tin and spread evenly. Once mix is all in, have a sneaky lick of the spoon!

STEP

Ask an adult to bake in a preheated oven at 160°C for 30 minutes. Don’t overcook it, you want it to spring back in place when you touch it. Remove cake from tin to cool, and cover it with a clean cloth to stop it from drying out. No eating yet!

Cool your cake before you start the fun part – icing! Remove the ready-made icing from the wrapper and microwave for 10 seconds to soften. Flatten it on the bench, add yellow food colouring over as much icing as possible then knead.

STEP

Roll out the icing with a rolling pin (put plastic wrap on the bench underneath to stop it sticking). Cover the cooled cake with the icing and cut away the excess.

STEP

Mould the excess icing to make Mr. Happy’s arms and legs, then attach them to his body. While you’re working on the rest of Mr. Happy, cover him with plastic wrap so he doesn’t dry out (he wouldn’t be happy about that!).

STEP

Soften the black and red licorice by placing in the microwave for 10 seconds. Roll out the black licorice and copy the shapes we’ve made for his mouth, eyes, eyebrows and outline. Roll out the red licorice to make his tongue.
