About this title

Review:

'...will make you laugh out loud. Francesca Simon's inventiveness ensures... each of the four new episodes of Henry's enjoyable awfulness and his brother Peter's namby-pamby virtuousness is freshly funny' -- Nicolette Jones, SUNDAY TIMES

'A well-designed book, with good pictures' -- Wendy Cooling, CHILD EDUCATION MAGAZINE

'Another brilliant collection of utterly wicked and funny adventures from our favourite naughty boy... four fabulous new stories' -- CHILD EDUCATION MAGAZINE

'Four new Horrid Henry stories for the holiday suitcase including Horrid Henry builds a time machine (wach out Perfect Peter) and Horrid Henry forced to go hiking. Will be top of my son's bag' -- ANGELS & URCHINS MAGAZINE

'Francesca Simon's lovably evil anti-hero, Horrid Henry, and his grotesquely good younger brother, Perfect Peter, cross swords again in these four new stories. The best sees Horrid Henry duping Perfect Peter into believing the cardboard box in the sitting room really is a time machine. ...Francesca Simon presses all the right buttons' -- Katie Law, EVENING STANDARD

'Henry is really naughty and makes me laugh. He's very funny and he has lots of adventures.' -- Martha, age 5, BELLA

'What is brilliant about the books is that Henry never does anything that is subversive. She creates an aura of supreme naughtiness (of which children are in awe) but points out that he operates within a safe and secure world. ...eminently readable books' -- Emily Turner, ANGELS AND URCHINS MAGAZINE

'an especially clever collection which may just deflect fights under the Christmas tree for 6-9s.' -- Amanda Craig, THE TIMES

'wonderfully appealing to girls and boys alike, a precious rarity at this age' -- Judith Woods, TIMES (Books) 27/8/05

Four hideously funny stories about the eternal battle between Horrid Henry and his brother Perfect Peter, involving tricks, pranks, revenge and an unexpectedly successful family meal at the snobby restaurant Le Posh. -- Amanda Craig, SATURDAY TIMES 13.8.05
