Little Miss Neat is the 3rd book in the Little Miss series. Little Miss Neat is as neat as two pins, and lives in Twopin Cottage. When she goes on holiday, Mr. Muddle comes to visit her empty house. He makes a cup of tea, putting everything back in the wrong place. When Little Miss Neat comes home she can't find anything, and when she sits in a chair she is pricked by forks, knives, and spoons that Mr. Muddle placed there. Hargreaves tells the reader, "I don't think Little Miss Neat will be taking a holiday next year. Do you?". Little Miss Neat has been published under the alternative titles of Madame Proprette (French), Doña Ordenada (Spanish), Unsere Sofie Säuberlich (German), Η Κυρία Καθαρή (Greek), 整潔小姐 (Taiwan) and 깔끔양 (Korean).

Famous quotes containing the word neat:
“Photographs may be more memorable than moving images because they are a neat slice of time, not a flow. Television is a stream of underselected images, each of which cancels its predecessor. Each still photograph is a privileged moment, turned into a slim object that one can keep and look at again.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
