These kid-sized editions are small enough to fit into tiny hands and pockets. Each pack includes these Munsch Annikin Miniature Edition favourites:
- The Paper Bag Princess: When the fiercest dragon in the whole world smashes Princess Elizabeth's castle, burns all her clothes, and captures her fiancé Prince Ronald, Elizabeth takes matters into her own hands. With her wits alone and nothing but a paper bag to wear, the princess challenges the dragon to show his strength in the hopes of saving the prince. But is it worth all that trouble?
- Angela's Airplane: When Angela's father gets lost at the airport, she looks for him everywhere, even inside an airplane. But when Angela's love of button-pressing proves too great, she finds herself in charge of flying the plane! Can Angela make it back down to the runway?
- Mortimer: Mortimer will not be quiet and go to sleep. Not for his mother, or his father, or his seventeen sisters and brothers, not even for the police. This beloved bestseller is the perfect read-aloud. Everyone will delight in joining in with Mortimer's famous refrain "Clang, clang, rattle, bing, bang, gonna make my noise all day!"
- Something Good: "Something good" is exactly what Tyya, Andrew, and Julie want to put into their shopping cart. Tyya's dad won't buy anything good at the store--no ice cream, no candy, no cookies. She only wants 100 tubs of ice cream and 300 candy bars! But when the grocery store clerk puts a price sticker on Tyya's nose, Daddy is finally forced to buy something good.
- Stephanie's Ponytail: None of the kids in her class wear a ponytail, so Stephanie decides she must have one. The loud, unanimous comment from her classmates is: "Ugly, ugly, very ugly." Steadfast, when all the girls have copied her ponytail, she resolves to try a new style. With true Munsch flair, each of Stephanie's ponytails is more outrageous than the last, while the cast of copycats grows and grows.
- Thomas' Snowsuit: Thomas refuses to wear his new snowsuit despite the pleas of his mother, his teacher, and even his principal! When everyone's best efforts lead only to comedic chaos, they all agree it's best to let Thomas suit himself.
