**This is the easy reader version of the book but I was asked to put it here** I am a great believer than children should be encouraged to enjoy books and I am very lucky that my son is a very able reader and likes to read books. I have always bought my son books for my son ever since he was a baby but this Christmas I was looking for some books which were more advanced but that he could still have a go at reading. This was how I stumbled across the Horrid Henry early reader books which I thought would be perfect for him. One of the books was called Horrid Henry's underpants which is what I am reviewing today. I am not overly familiar with the ...  Read the complete review

The dastardly deeds of Horrid Henry are currently the subject 17 books written for children aged between 6 and 11. The author of these books is Francesca Simon and each one is focused around Horrid Henry and his equally horrid friends. As you can probably guess from the title of the collection Henry is a horrid child whereas his brother Peter is perfect. Henry's mum and dad sincerely wish that Henry was like Peter but we don't because then there wouldn't be any fantastic antics from Simon to right her books about. Horrid Henry's Underpants is book number 11in the collection and was published in 2003. The book contains four stories entitled, Horrid Henry Eats ...  Read the complete review

This is one of 10 books in the Horrid Henry series that I bought for my son this Christmas. I bought them as part of a pack of 10 for only £9.99 from a book club which visits the primary school I work in….They leave a selection of books for you to browse and order from, I am sure it was The Book People ( www.bookpeople.co.uk ) but cannot be 100% sure as I have visited the website and cannot find this offer available now.

Horrid Henry's antics have had my children laughing out loud, nodding in empathy and captivated into open mouthed awe. Francesca Simon is the author, and the creator of Horrid Henry, and his little brother Perfect Peter. It tends to follow the classic 'one child is good whilst another is playing up' scenario, which most children can identify with. Despite Henry's naughtiness, he is an endearing charector and there are times when you find yourself feeling sorry for Henry who cant seem to do anything right. I have at times wondered whether Henry's and Peter's behaviour has been adopted by my own two, having given them seeds of ideas and roles to identify ...  Read the complete review
