About the Author:
Francesca Simon spent her childhood on the beach in California, and then went to Yale and Oxford Universities to study medieval history and literature. She now lives in London with her English husband, Martin, and their son, Joshua. When she is not writing books she is doing theatre and restaurant reviews or chasing after her Tibetan Spaniel, Shanti. Tony Ross is one of the most popular and successful of all children's illustrators, with many picture books to his name as well as line drawings for many fiction titles.
Review:
"Another superb collection of stories about manipulative, tantrum-prone Henry and his long suffering family...All four stories are a guaranteed delight for 5 to 8-year-old little devils." -- Good Book Guide
"Brilliantly inventive and full of slapstick humour" -- World Book Day 2003
"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, 20 July 2002
"Is Henry as horrid as ever? You bet, and in the latest collection of stories he manages to keep up his reputation as enfant terrible. His fans will not be disappointed at his latest antics. Ross's illustrations only serve to emphasise the horribleness of Henry even more. You have been warned." -- Books for Keeps
"It can be a struggle to get boys interested in reading, but Horrid Henry is one character who will certainly have them gripped." -- Scholastic Magazines Best Books 2003, October 2003
"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, Summer 2002
"Three stories that provide outrageous fun" -- Junior Magazine
"Wickedly subversive and hilariously funny" -- Family Interest Magazine, September/October 2002
