Do you have a child or children who devour every Horrid Henry title that comes out??? If so, this brand new series is perfect for those readers. Funny, shocking, rude and anarchic stories – they’re perfect for the 8+ market. Although not entirely new, the Grizzly Tales format has been completely reinvented in this new series for today’s market. Within the six stories in this the first in the series there are ingenious concepts to link each story but the titles still capture brilliantly Jamie Rix’s legendary and enduring stories that linger long after the lights have gone out.
Grizzliness is out there. Every child has the makings of mischievousness, and can be lured into committing dastardly deeds. The six stories in each of the Grizzly Tales books show the rise and hard fall of vile and villainous children. Unspeakable things happen to pets - but the real nasty little beasts are the children themselves, all of them get their comeuppance in the end, consigned to the Hothell Darkness.
After two years at The Royal Court Theatre in London, Jamie Rix moved into television in 1986 as a director, writer and producer. He has worked on a wide variety of programmes - the BAFTA nominated Alas Smith and Jones, British Comedy Award winning Faith in the Future and the superhero BBC sitcom My Hero.
