I think Horrible Harry and the Ant Invasion is really cool.This is funny because ants crawl up peoples' pants.It will realy crack you up. A reader from Round Lake, New York, June 15, 1999

Harry is a boy whose ambition is to be a great scientist. His red curly hair is a distinctive feature and he is an example of the type of child that seems to be found in every second grade class. While his intentions are good, he always seems to be in the wrong place when something goes wrong. Hence his is tagged with the "horrible" prefix.

There are four adventures in this book. In the one that gives the book its' title, Harry's class acquires an ant farm for study. When a small number escape, Harry is ingenious in capturing them without injuring them. The second story describes the effort the teacher makes to teach the children how to square dance. As is typical of second grade boys, most have no interest in dancing with girls. However, Harry is interested, especially when it is Song Lee, his favorite girl in the class. In the third story, the class has a fish tank and someone turns the temperature up so that one dies. Harry is blamed for this, but of course he didn't do it and the culprit is discovered. The final story is about the class photograph and the antics of the photographer in trying to get the children to smile for the photos.

Elementary school is an adventurous time in the life of a child and this book contains four adventures that are very typical of what happens. We did not have an ant farm when I was in elementary school, but each of the remaining three things happened when I was in elementary school. For these reasons, I recommend this book for young children.

This book is about when Harry went to go on a Field Trip. And Harry fall in the pound .He got out of the pound. And he was so wet. He went home to tell his mother. What would happen next?

Look at the book to find out what happens next.

I liked the book because my favorite port of the book is when Harry Fell in the pound .It was funky. This happed to me. Once I fell in the pound. Was soaking and wet. Just like Harry? I was sad and he was mad.

I recommend this book to the 5th graders they will be able to read it and they will be able to solve the problem. The book is a mystery book, and the book is hard to solve. I like mystery

This book in an interesting book for young readers, and very funny.You should read more of collection. I read lots of these books and i enjoy them.

This book is reaaly funny and filled with horrible thinking. I like this beause it's about this boy and every-time something happened he's always the one getting in trouble for it or thinking about something horrible to do. This book puts me in the mind of myself, and I also liked this book because there are so many books that are by this Author and it's filled with lots of laughter. "Great pictures and Good Jokes!"

This book is about Harry and his classmates. They had a Show and Tell fun day, and one out of six students brought a container of ants into school. Harry dropped his container and there was an invasion of ants. A while later the teacher came in and screamed, "Ahhhhh!" Harry comes to the rescue. Read to find out how Harry solves the problem. This book reminds me of when I went camping and we had a snake attack.

This book is very cute!!

horrible Harry is a great series!!! The Authors Make a big world of it. harry is really crazy of the second grade!!!

The book Horrible Harry and the Ant Invasion by Susy Klineis a cool story about a boy that gets the job of "ant monitor" because ants are going to his class. One day something terrible happened and Harry felt sad about it. But it wasn't his fault.It is fun but sad because it has funny and sad parts too. I don't recommend this book to sentimental people.

I give this book three stars because you enjoy it when you read it but it is not a book that deserves five stars.I recomend this book to somebody because sometimes you get board reading the same book there are four stories in this book and they are interesting because they have many details about the characters and when things happen that have to do something with them you wont think it is wierd.
