For the cover alone, this is a must-have! Bad boy Horrid Henry is back as the star in four new exciting stories in which, as ever, he torments his brother Perfect Pete and drives his misguided parents to the brink…How Horrid Henry, with a scowl on his face and a torch in his hand, faces up to the Zombie Vampire is vividly captured in the strikingly embossed cover.
Early Readers are stepping stones from picture books to reading books. A blue Early Reader is perfect for sharing and reading together. A red Early Reader is the next step on your reading journey.
Henry's class are on a spooky school trip to the local museum, but could there be a terrifying zombie vampire on the loose? Henry soon has his classmates believing Miss Battle-Axe and Miss Lovely might be scarier than they seem . . .
