Horrid Henry is a children's book series by Francesca Simon and illustrated by Tony Ross.
[3] The books are a slice-of-life series featuring the titular Henry, a wildly misbehaved boy who will typically be faced with a problem and then will often retaliate in interesting ways that involve trickery, rule-breaking and elaborate practical jokes.
Many of the books' stories were inspired by events from Simon's life and those of people that she knew, with additional ideas coming from her imagination.
[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] The Horrid Henry stories are read on audiobook by actress Miranda Richardson and published by Orion Audio.
Sourcebooks has released additional Horrid Henry titles including activity pages, event kits and a teacher's guide.
