Mr. Men and Little Miss
I had a bunch of these books when I was a kid, although the "Little Miss" stories weren't available until I was really too old for them. (Unfair!) They were just stories with simple lessons and even simpler artwork, but they appealed to me. I was pleased to see this morning that not only are the books still available, but the characters are going to start airing in an animated series on The Cartoon Network this February. Not that I get The Cartoon Network, but it always makes me feel just a tad younger when things I liked as a kid turn out to still be current. The website is here: Mr. Men. Although Mr. Bump and Mr. Quiet are my favorites, the site is worth a look just for the gleefully evil laugh of Little Miss Naughty.
