Four best-selling Horrid Henry stories, each richly illustrated by Tony Ross, are gathered up in this bumper volume making a perfect gift book. The chaos of Horrid Henry’s birthday party; the shock of Horrid Henry’s underpants – as supplied by forgetful Great Aunt Greta; what happens when Horrid Henry has nits and what Horrid Henry has to do to shine at football. In each, Henry reveals yet another aspect of his horrid behaviour.
