Utterly wicked and totally brilliant. Henry will do anything to stop this car journey - he wants to be at Ralph's birthday party instead! More hilarious Henry escapades - especially for younger readers.
There are lots of Early Reader titles to choose from that are great for sharing with your youngsters and for kids just starting out on the reading journey to read alone. Check out the extracts on the site as some of the titles are slightly more advanced than others - for example the Francesca Simon animal story titles set at Potters Barn are great to get started on whereas the Sally Gardner, Georgie Adams and Vivian French titles have a bit more text to each page. Each and every one of them though has full colour illustrations on every page.
Horrid Henry's Car Journey (Early Reader) Synopsis
Horrid Henry hits the Silver Screen Summer 2011. See below for a sneak peek.
Horrid Henry hates car journeys - especially when it means going somewhere he doesn't want to go such as to visit Prissy Polly and Pimply Paul. Mum and Dad had better watch out, because Henry is prepared to do whatever it takes to get out of this trip.
Francesca Simon was born in St Louis, Missouri, grew up in California, and attended both Yale and Oxford Universities, where she specialised in Medieval Studies. She worked as a freelance journalist, writing for the Sunday Times, Guardian, Mail on Sunday, Telegraph, and Vogue (US) and after her son Joshua was born in 1989, she started writing children’s books full time. One of the UK’s best-selling children’s writers, Francesca has published over 50 books, including the immensely popular HORRID HENRY series, which has now sold over fifteen milllion copies.
Francesca won the Children’s Book of the Year in 2008 at the British Book Awards for Horrid Henry and the Abominable Snowman. HORRID HENRY is published in 24 countries and is also an animated CITV series. She lives in London with her husband, son, and Tibetan Spaniel, Shanti.
