This spring, Spice Girls fans can look forward to the Spice Girls 2019 reunion tour throughout the UK and Ireland, as well as the Little Miss x Spice Girls Collab, which introduces fun new characters to the beloved Mr. Men Little Miss franchise. The Spice Girls will officially be assigned their own Little Miss titles and characters, joining the ranks of favorites like Little Miss Giggles and Little Miss Scatterbrain.
Little Miss Baby, Ginger, Scary and Sporty each have their own books, which align with the girl group's mission to bring empowerment to young girls and women, while also letting their unique personalities shine. As well as being able to collect a set of four books, Spice Girls fans young and old will also be able to purchase other pieces of merchandise like tote bags, mugs, coasters and art prints.
