Horrid Henry Early Reader: Don't Be Horrid, Henry!

Early Readers are stepping stones from picture books to reading books. A blue Early Reader is perfect for sharing and reading together. A red Early Reader is the next step on your reading journey.

It's a dreadful shock for Horrid Henry when Perfect Peter is born, and despite his best - or worst - efforts, he can't manage to get rid of him. As Peter gets bigger, Henry gets crosser adn crosser, but the day comes when Henry inadvertently finds himself saving Peter and discovers that its rather nice to be a hero.

“'Tony Ross's fun and fresh illustrations add more mischief to the spirit of Horrid Henry'.”
