Description
This series of early readers are fantastic. The basic idea is to take one story from the usual Horrid Henry books and make it into a chapter book. This breaks up the longer text with pictures and makes it easier for newly confident readers to read alone.
My kids have all loved Horrid Henry and these are a great addition for younger readers. This, first book, introduces Horrid Henry and his brother Perfect Peter.
Guarantee all kids will adore them and they would be great for any boy who is a reluctant reader. Henry will understand all their objections to being made to read a book!
As a reading mentor I always turn to Horrid Henry for boys that are struggling to discover a love of the written word and he has never failed me yet and neither has the wonderful, brilliant Francesca Simon. Her understanding of children, and parents, is spot on
