Stereotypical storylines. Cut-out characters. Sets up Horrid Henry as a role model, which is not helpful to parents trying to encourage children to behave decently to their siblings (as opposed to encouraging bullying).

My 6 year old adores these books. They keen her entertained for ages, especially as she can now read them to herself. I think she lives her naughty streak through them - but better that than he doing the naughty deeds herself!

07-Jan-2007
"Brilliant short stories for little boys all about the bad one in the family - horrid Henry and the good one - his brother perfect Peter. Particular favourites are 'Horrid Henry's Nits' and 'Horrid Henry's Sports Day'." "We love all the Horrid Henry stories and these can be re-read time and time again." "My son continued to enjoy these books once he was able to read on their own." "This was the first non-picture book that my daughter enjoyed - the stories are amusing and not too long and there is an illustration on every page."
