Horrid Henry

Horrid Henry is a children's book series created by Francesca Simon and illustrated by Tony Ross. The first Horrid Henry book was written and published in 1994 by Orion Books and as of 2015, there have been twenty-four titles published, as well as many other collections, activity books and joke books. Novel Entertainment produced an animated television series for CITV.

The general story is a slice-of-life setup, featuring the main character Henry. Henry is a self-centred, naughty prankster who has issues with authority (similar to Bart Simpson) and will typically be faced with a problem and then will attempt to solve it, often in interesting ways that involves trickery, rule-breaking and elaborate practical jokes. Henry has a brother called Perfect Peter, who is generally the exact opposite to Henry, being kind, thoughtful, ambitious and respectful to authority. Henry bullies Peter on a daily basis.

Books

The Horrid Henry stories are read on audiobook by the actress Miranda Richardson, and published by Orion Audio. The combined sales of all the Horrid Henry books and audiobooks now stands at over twenty million copies. Horrid Henry is published in twenty five languages around the world. In April 2009, the US Sourcebooks' Jabberwocky imprint released four Horrid Henry paperbacks nationwide which included "Horrid Henry," "Horrid Henry's Stinkbomb," "Horrid Henry and the Mega-Mean Time Machine," and "Horrid Henry Tricks the Tooth Fairy." Sourcebooks has since released eleven other Horrid Henry titles. They also have a page with free Activity Pages, Event Kits and a Teacher's Guide for US teachers (http://www.sourcebooks.com/spotlight/horrid-henry-books.html).

Henry Danger

Henry Danger is an American superhero situation comedy television series airing on Nickelodeon. The series was created by Dan Schneider and Dana Olsen. It stars Jace Norman as Henry, Cooper Barnes as Captain Man, Riele Downs as Charlotte, Sean Ryan Fox as Jasper, and Ella Anderson as Piper.

Plot

Henry Hart is a 13-year-old boy who lives in the town of Swellview. He lands a part-time job as Kid Danger, a sidekick to the superhero well known in Swellview, Captain Man. Captain Man tells Henry not to tell anybody about his job, so he keeps it a secret from his best friends Charlotte (though she eventually learns the secret) and Jasper, his parents, and his younger sister Piper. Henry goes to a shop called "Junk 'n' Stuff", which has a secret lair hidden underneath where Captain Man does his work. Captain Man says he will not be around for long and needs help; soon enough, he will need someone to take his place when he is gone (meaning Henry will take over one day).
