DD says she has been moved from one colour box to another and I'm trying to figure out whether it's up down or sideways! (i really need to get out more!)

The Twits.

The Twits is harder.

I think Horrid Henry tricks the Tooth Fairy is bigger text, easier to read and is doable for a child approx ORT level 8. The Twits - maybe a level or 2 higher. Just my opinion.

The twits is ace. Ds loved it, he's 7

On my school's reading scheme The Twits is level 4.4 and the Horrid Henry book is 3.1, so The Twits is quite a bit harder. I can't remember the reading age advised for each level, though, but could find out next week?

The Twits is harder.

The Twits (I am a teacher if that carries any weight!). Also, the Horrid Henry books are loathsome whereas Roald Dahl is a literary genius.
