“This being said, parents who dislike any kind of negative media/literature, may have a problem with the Horrid Henry books. Horrid Henry is quite naughty and there are negative comments throughout the books, such as Henry's parents always telling him that he is indeed horrid. However, if taken lightly and in the fun that they are meant to be, this is a great series that will encourage children to read. I, myself, read them to my 6 year old daughter and we both enjoyed them, as well as enjoyed talking about the not so good things that Henry did and why they were not so good.
The Horrid Henry chapter books aim for the age range of 7 - 10, which I think is perfect. Children a bit older may find themselves reading and laughing right along with Henry's antics as well. As mentioned, the stories use a great use on word play, as well as silliness and fun pencil drawings throughout, to help along in the visual stimulation, as well as bringing imagination to life. These books enable children to have fun (perhaps thinking they are even getting away with something, by reading about such a "horrid" child), learn and grow in their love for reading. Parents and children, alike, are sure to giggle, shake there heads and enjoy the ironic twists at the end of each story.”
