My Book Review

Horrid Henry Wakes the Dead

By Eve Martynski

I just finished reading a book called Horrid Henry Wakes the Dead. It was a very funny book and I loved reading it.

The book was about a cheeky boy called Henry, who is sometimes naughty but very funny. In this book there was a talent show in school and if you won, you would get to go on a TV show called Talent Tiger. Henry was going to sign up to do a rap song that he wrote himself, but then Moody Margaret stole his idea, so Henry had to think of another talent and he finally chose to do magic.

Henry couldn't get any of his friends to help him with his magic show, so he tried to trick his brother, Perfect Peter, into being his assistant, but in the end the trick backfired and Peter won the whole talent show.

My favourite part of the book was at the end when Henry found out that he had lost and Peter had won, there was also a really funny part of the book when Henry was trying to figure out what talent to use and he tried lots of different things, including trying to burp the alphabet!

I would tell my friends to read this book because it is really funny and interesting to read.
