Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 2-4 Harry is one of those characters who is made up of parts of children whom readers all know. He is the devilish second grader who plays pranks and gets into mischief but can still end up a good friend. In a series of brief scenes, children meet Harry as he shows a garter snake to Song Lee and later ends up being a snake himself for Halloween. His trick to make scary people out of pencil stubs backfires when no one is scared, and his budding romance with Song Lee goes nowhere on the trip to the aquarium. Told by his best friend, Doug, this story should prove to be popular with those just starting chapter books or looking for a new male character, along with Kline's ``Herbie Jones'' (Putnam).

This review is from: Horrible Harry in Room 2B (Turtleback)

As part of an assignment for one of my teaching classes, I had to teach reading to a group of second graders. My group enjoyed reading this book. In fact, I went and got Harry and the Green Slime to also read with the group.

This review is from: Horrible Harry in Room 2B (Paperback)

Horriable Harry in Room 2B is my favorite book. Not only is it a book that i have grown up with, it is also an interesting and enjoyable book to just sit down and read. From the funny stiches he gets himself involved into, and the "double revenge" that he puts upon Sidney, this book has always made me giggle. If you arn't sure if an older kid would like it, let me tell you this, im 16 and Horriable Harry in Room 2B is DEFINTALY my FAVORITE book!

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Horrible Harry in Room 2B (Paperback)

I think this book is cool. This is the best book I ever read. It is the best book I have ever read because Harry is very realistic. And Harry likes cookies and so do I. And Harry is horrible but he is still very cool. ~Gaby~
