A female in the title of a book series is not always a sign of girl empowerment. The Little Miss books are some of the worst ever. Just the title phrase, “Little Miss,” is irritating, and the personalities of these girl characters are even more annoying. Following the Little Miss moniker, there is often a sterotypical “female” negative characteristic, for example charcaters include Little Miss Bossy (Do people ever call boys bossy? Or would it be “Little Mr. Assertive”?) There is Little Miss Chatterbox, Little Miss Tidy, Little Miss Scatterbrain etc.Usually, the Little Miss is the only girl up against five or six innocent males she is causing trouble for with names like Mr. Clever (Not little Mr. Clever) and Doctor Makeyouwell.

[…] This trifecta, is in my opinion, the worst of the worst: Amelia Bedilia, Pippi Longstocking, and Little Miss Naughty. I actually have a hard time with the entire Little Miss series. I know some people like Pippi, and […]
You conveniently forgot:
Little Miss Wise
Little Miss Brainy
And also forgot that the Mr. Men series has:
Mr. Greedy
Mr. Mean
Mr. Chatterbox (released BEFORE Little Miss Chatterbox)
Mr. Rude
Men have just as many negative stereotypes as women, albeit different ones.
