What can one say about a Horrid Henry book - especially a mixed media one that has both the highly illustrated book and the audio cd - that hasn't been said before!

I love them - they are so funny and horrid Henry's antics in trying to not be the only person with nits is hysterically funny. I laughed all the way through! Miranda Richardson's rendition of it is just brilliant.

The Early Reader side is excellent with Tony Ross' illustrations, which make for a fantastic read with special Horrid Henry sounds to tell you when to turn the page.

Horrid Henry Gets Rich Quick is another wonderfully wicked story from Francesca Simon and read by the equally wonderful Miranda Richardson. Henry is up to no good again as he tries to get some cash quickly and some of his schemes are hilarious with quite a few laugh out loud moments!

There is also a read along version on the cd where parents and children can read along together and of course ;laugh together. The illustrations by Tony Ross perfectly reflect the story. I thoroughly enjoyed listening and reading to the story.

More than highly recommended.

Four wickedly brilliant stories here from Francesca Simon and broought to life by Miranda Richardson. All four stories have you laughing out loud they are so funny - one for both adults and children to read, listen and enjoy together.

Highly recommended.

This is just the single story of Horrid Henry and the Football Fiend - absolutely deliciously wicked! Here Henry and his class are trying to win some FA tickets to see their local football team play. But who will win them?

Wonderful mayhem on cd and an early reader for parents and children to read together.

One runs out of superlatives to say about these stories - just listen and enjoy. Highly recommended.

Horrid Henry and the Abominable Snowman audio book cd set comes in a snowman shaped tin with 3 cds covering 13 stories - all of them showing the mayhem that Horrid Henry can cause. Sometimes he means to do and sometimes it just happens - but the way Miranda Richardson reads/acts all the different characters - complete with sound effects are a joy to listen to. Children will love this collection which will keep them occupied for quite a while. Just make sure thy don't come away with too many ideas!

Francesca Simon has the most amazing imagination when it comes to her Horrid Henry character so popular in book, audio cd and childrens TV. How she keeps on coming up with ever new stories to keep her young readers happy (and they are!) is beyond me. I just love reading them but even better, I love listening to them read by Miranda Richardson.

Parents beware these stories may give your child ideas!!!

There is so much in these stories and Horrid Henry is positively evil! But somehow his parents even at their most exasperated always forgive Henry and his dastardly ways!

Horrid Henry's Birthday Party by Francsca Simon and read by Miranda Richardson is more than brilliant! I found myself laughing out loud more than a few times when listening to Horrid Henry's exploits and his reaction to his birthday gifts!

Tony Ross' illustration are excellent and carry the story forward beautifully and coloufully and very much compliment the read along version of this mixed media book and cd.

This is a brilliant book and audio cd with Miranda Richardson's rendition captivating. There are special effects galore and the 40 minutes shoots by in what seems only seconds with Horrid Henry up to his usual tricks of causing mayhem at every given opportunity.

Although it is an early reader for the 3-6 year olds - I have to say that I would recommend it for an ault as a way of just taking time out and relaxing the mind from the stresses of the world!

Another marvelous selection of Horrid Henry Stories, written by Francessca Simon and read by Miranda Richardson.

Henry really does know how to get up everyones nose, and really make them mad with him, but what would we do without these wonderful stories to laugh aboutand visualise when we hear them so expertly read by Miranda.  How she does all the voices I just dont know.

Yes yet another pack of twelve stories on  audio CD.  Three stories that I have not seen before - one was Horrid Henry and the Mega Time Machine and the way he as usual tricks his brother and all the others around him.

Another of the new ones is Horrid Henry and the Football Fiend, this had me laughing at the chaos that Henry causes in and on and around the football pitch, what will Francessca Simon think up in her next series of Horrid Henry stories!
