About this book

Horrid Henry is determined to get his perfect brother into trouble, meets his match when he spends a day at dad's office with the monstrous Bossy Bill, and pits his wits against Greta, the evil dinner lady.

A very funny collection of short stories about the loveable rascal, with amusing black and white illustrations, ideal for early readers.
