Horrid Henry Robs the Bank Award-winning team by Francesca Simon (author) and Tony Ross (illustrator)

Author/Illustrator

Francesca Simon

Francesca Simon is the author of the hugely successful Horrid Henry series, which has sold over 15 million copies. Henry is a terrible (but loveable) tearaway who leaves grown-ups in tears, and playmates cowering! Short chapters and line drawings from Tony Ross make these great choices for newly confident readers.

More about Francesca: “I was born in St Louis, Missouri, grew up in Los Angeles and attended both Yale and Oxford Universities, where I specialised in Medieval Studies. I then threw away a lucrative career as a medievalist and worked as a freelance journalist, writing for the Sunday Times, Guardian, Mail on Sunday, Telegraph, and Vogue.

After my son Joshua was born in 1989, I started writing children’s books full time.

I have published over 50 books, including the immensely popular Horrid Henry series, published in 17 countries and now a successful CITV animation series.

I live in London with my husband, son, and Tibetan Spaniel called Shanti.”

   We read this book in our reading group. We thought it was hilarious! We liked it when Henry sneaked into Margaret’s house to steal the rubies for the game. We don’t think Henry is really Horrid. We liked the arguments between the characters because they are funny!

   I think that Henry finds it not fair that perfect Peter gets more pocket money than him .

    I loved this book because it was good when they were playing a board game and when Henry ran out of money he snook over to Margaret’s house because she had the same game and he took the money from that game and ended up winning!
