Four stories about Horrid Henry, everyone's favourite awful child, and — as Books for Keeps called him — 'the child every teacher has nightmares about'.
For a start. Horrid Henry has nits, and he's on a mission to give them to everyone else. After that, he can turn his attention to terrorising Perfect Peter while making some pocket money, sabotaging the school trip, and getting his own back when he's sent to bed because his parents are giving a dinner party.
