...sure to hit a chord with all kids and have them chortling...a must for all fans.

Review
"Henry's sharp wit and disregard for authority make him the ideal short-story hero - especially when the subject is school. Plenty of dialogue, large text and fun illustrations make this an energetic read. What's more, it's split neatly into 10 short stories to encourage new readers". (Junior Magazine, 1 Feb 05 )

5.0 out of 5 stars I would heartily recommend this to any parent, 15 Aug 2006
By Mike J. Wheeler (Kingswinford, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This was bought for my 7-year old son a few months ago with a view to encouraging him to start reading for himself. This definitely did the trick. He's now read all of the Horrid Henry books, all of Dav Pilkey's Captain Underpants books and started reading 'Goosebumps' books. This has taken just a few months from him showing little interest in reading fiction to himself to now reading every night before he goes to sleep. He really enjoys this particular book and I think he's read it three times now. I would heartily recommend this to any parent trying to get their kids to read. It's great to hear my son laughing away to himself completely wrapped up in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars how an 8 year- old sold us on Horrid Henry, 8 Mar 2006
By Mr. Derek Tunnicliffe "derekt221" (France (ex-pat UK)) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Stuck for choice of books for my grandchildren, in a Manchester bookstore, I noted a young boy and his father searching the shelves. The boy explained: he wanted more Horrid Henry - he had learned to enjoy reading after someone bought him his first H-H. On his advice, I bought this one. The grandchildren's response was "Wow! More, more" - and so was that of their friends who heard the stories too. So, I'm looking for more. NB I don't enjoy them so much but then, I'm not the right age any more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book to get children reading, 26 Jul 2007
I recommend these books for children aged 6-9. They are great at encouraging children to read. I initially bought the story tapes for my reluctant reader son. Both my children (boy 8, girl 7) loved the stories so much that soon they were both devouring the books. They are aimed at a younger audience than (beloved but less accessible) Just William. The typeface is large and easy to read, the stories short and fast paced, but most importantly, they are really funny and Horrid Henry appeals to the rebel in all of us.
