About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling the weight of being the 'difficult' sibling or is constantly butting heads with a 'perfect' brother or sister. This collection of four stories centers on Henry, a boy who feels perpetually misunderstood by his parents and annoyed by his rule-abiding brother, Peter. It offers a safe, humorous space for children to process feelings of unfairness and sibling jealousy without the pressure of a moral lesson. While Henry's behavior is definitely 'horrid,' the book serves as a pressure valve for elementary-aged readers who occasionally harbor their own mischievous impulses. Parents will find it particularly useful for starting low-stakes conversations about family dynamics and school life. It is perfect for reluctant readers who need high-energy plots and short, manageable chapters to build their confidence.
