Bogey Babysitter

Horrid Henry encounters the babysitter from hell, traumatizes his parents on a car journey, goes trick or treating at Hallowe'en, and invades Moody Margaret's Secret Club. Four stories, as brilliant and inventive as ever, to add to 'the funniest series ever written about sibling rivalry and what it's like to be a young child' (Independent on Sunday).

Praise for Horrid Henry: "Francesca Simon's Horrid Henry is the last boy on earth you'd ever fancy, though he's utterly irresistable and weirdly familiar." The Independent on Sunday "Francesca Simon has become a master of slapstick humour with her ever popular Horrid Henry series. Children love the subversive nature and the sneekiness of the eponymous 'hero'." Birmingham Post "Long may this dreadful boy continue to terrorise all who know him. He's a nightmare, but so entertaining." Parents Guide "The four stories in this book are laugh aloud funny. ... I can't help feeling that Francesca Simon had as much fun researching these stories as she gives to her young readers" Carousel

Francesca Simon spent her childhood in California, and then went to Yale and Oxford Universities to study medieval history and literature. She now lives in London with her family. She has written over 50 books and won THE CHILDREN'S BOOK OF THE YEAR in 2008 at the GALAXY BRITISH BOOK AWARDS for HORRID HENRY AND THE ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN.
