Synopsis

How did you guess - Horrid Henry hates going to bed and will do anything to put off the awful moment. This specially written new story is put together with the diary he had to write for his homework, and the story that explains just what he's got against Perfect Peter. The diary and Don't Be Horrid, Henry have previously been published in other formats but Francesca Simon has written hilarious new introductions to them and has added some of the questions children often ask her about Henry (and herself). As always, the text is matched by Tony Ross's sparky drawings.

Media Reviews
All kids will relate to Herny's hatred of bedtime. He will do anything to stay up as late as possible and put off the inevitable moment when he has to be tucked in. This new tale includes the diary that Henry had to write for his homework, and explains just what it is that he had against Perfect Peter. Tony Ross' imaginative and quirky drawings help to bring the story to life. -- Sam Wostear The Sun
