Reviews"In this installment in a best-selling chapter-book series from the U.K., self-centered Horrid Henry wreaks total havoc at the Nativity play, destroys the Christmas tree, and almost ruins the holiday lunch. His irreverent actions are made tolerable through the ridiculousness of the incidents and the appeal to the naughty side in readers' personalities. Ross's mischievous black-and-white cartoon drawings are the perfect choice to carry them off. Large print and simple vocabulary make this title an easy read and a fun read-aloud. Booktalk it with Barbara Robinson's The Best Christmas Pageant Ever (HarperCollins, 1972)." -- School Library Journal, "This edition contains four stories that will have you shaking your head and laughing out loud." - KC Books, "Henry's penchant for trouble pins him up against Perfect Peter who scored the best part in the school's Christmas play. This and three other yarns will keep all yawns at bay." -- LA Parent, "With fun illustrations, this entertaining 100-page paperback read makes a great stocking stuffer to teach children how NOT to behave." -- Times Illinois Edition, "It's sure to delight even the toughest scrooge. Horrid Henry never disappoints and your young readers will enjoy finding this under the tree right next to a mega-sized Waterblaster or Space Howler." - Examiner.com, "We loved all the stories in this book and what a great book to read the week of Christmas." - Books Upon a Wee One's Shelf, "Chapter book readers can't go wrong with Horrid Henry hilarity - at Christmas or any other time of year!" - BookLoons, ""The stories are short, so they make perfect bedtime reading, and your children may actually be proud of themselves because they could never be as Horrid as Henry!"" - Bobbi's Book Nook, "The stories are short, so they make perfect bedtime reading, and your children may actually be proud of themselves because they could never be as Horrid as Henry!" -- Bobbi's Book Nook, ""Henry's penchant for trouble pins him up against Perfect Peter who scored the best part in the school's Christmas play.
