Fans of Horrid Henry will love Miranda Richardson reading HORRID HENRY AND THE FOOTBALL FIEND' -- Caroline Franklin * NEWBURY WEEKLY NEWS *
?brilliant ? beltingly read by Miranda Richardson and has four Henry stories ? my favourite is the football one, where Henry and his class rival, Moody Margaret, both get their come-uppance ? to delight anyone who's listening.
