Horrid Henry Robs a Bank (Francesca Simon)


 I'm trying to read the books in my classroom library more often to my class. Many of them have been in my classroom for 10+ years (even before me!) but don't get read a lot. I decided we should dip into them. This one was, well, horrid. Henry is an obnoxious kids who is always on the fight. We didn't even  finish it. We couldn't stand his naughtiness. It wasn't even funny. It's also very British. Many of the words used weren't familiar to my students so I'd change them on the fly but if they were reading it on their own, it'd cause a problem in comprehension, for sure.


I actually put this one in the recycling. Crazy!

Goodreads says nothing about this book either! Weird.
