Offering a summary of everything and everyone in Horrid Henry's wicked world, including his perennially furious babysitter Angry Anna, his long-suffering teddy bear Mr Kill and his saintly brother Perfect Peter, this encyclopaedia, exuberantly illustrated by Tony Ross, is cross-referenced and indexed.

Created by an award-winning author and illustrator, this set of ten humorous rhyming picture books feature engaging animal characters on journeys of self-discovery. Cottonwool Colin learns about self-care, Cow realises that no one likes a misery moo, Slug discovers that there are other ways to show love than hugs (which are hard when you are armless) and Big Bad Bun teaches his parents about perspective.

With stories about Christmas presents, school plays, eating vegetables, and the Abominable Snowman, jokes, puzzles, games and Henry’s Christmas survival guide, this set of three Horrid Henry books – his Merry Mischief, Cracking Christmas and Jolly Holidays – Will occupy even the most lively children over the festive season.

If, like Tony Ross, you love the anticipation of Christmas almost as much as Christmas, you can count down to the big day with this collection of 24 seasonal stories, culminating on Christmas Eve with Elizabeth Harrison’s magical Story of the Christ-Child. Among the ‘tales’ are The Snow Queen, Good King Wenceslas, the Nativity from the King James Bible and the New York Times report of the 1914 Christmas truce – all illustrated in Tony Ross’s inimitable style.
