The final collection of four brand new utterly horrid stories in which Horrid Henry triumphantly reveals his guide to perfect parents, reads an interesting book about a really naughty boy, and conjures up the cannibal's curse to deal with his enemies and small, annoying brother. Horrid Henry is illustrated by Tony Ross, who also illustrates David Walliams' children's books, as well as his own picture books. Read by Miranda Richardson

In the final story, Henry's favourite Evil Evie books are taken away because his parents fear their influence. But Henry is who he is anyway. And, as we always suspected, Henry is just like most children. Not really, in fact, horrid. The Sunday Times Ireland

Praise for the series:

These books are hilarious Yorkshire Reporter
