3.0 out of 5 stars Review, March 2, 2009

By 

Elizabeth Barrington "Reader" (San Diego) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Horrid Henry and the Secret Club (Dolphin Paperbacks) (Paperback)

I think the series has a little too much toilet humor for me. I have a nephew that found it hysterical, but my family thought it was a tad rude. The humor is typically British so you need to understand that.
