Only one chapter about football
Read
September 3, 2011Within this book is the story of Horrid Henry goes shopping, which is a funny story, wherby Horrid Henry, who is a mischievious boy and his brother Perfect Peter, who as the name suggests is perfect, go shopping with their parents. It ends in a nightmare with Horrid Henry trying everything he can not to go, leaving his parents mortified by his antics. The story is very funny for children to read or have read to them as it has a meaning to them. The children related to the story, where there have been times they have not wanted to go shopping and tried their best to not have to go. Also the children who i read this book to commented on the alliteration used in the book and how the illustrations within it made the story even funnier. The childrens attention was constantly on the book throughout me reading it to them and it lead to lots of discussions afterwards within the group of children. A good, meaningful story for children to read.

I don't particually like Horrid Henry. This was a quick read and has some good ideas and jokes. I only read it because it was lying on the floor. I picked it up and started reading...! I recommend this book for a quick read.

Horrid Henry wanted the ticket to go to the the soccer match and his teacher has two tickets . The whole class had to play a match and see who will win . The two who scored the most goals are Margaret an Henry . It was 2 : 2 and it was penalty shoot out and nobody scored but the teacher so she get to keep the ticket with her mom , but because Henry helped her in the morning she gave it to him .Henry was so pleased that he could go . He saw his favorite team named Manchester United won the match . Henry's teacher was so angry she did not watch the match of the Manchester United . I thought Henry was not able to go to the match . I hope you like it as I did . You can watch the video at :

Having been bullied in elementary school for years I found it quite difficult to read this book. I know children like them - and I read the books my husband buys for children before he gives them away - I still found this hard to read.
I made it through the first story - Horrid Henry Peeks at Peter's Diary - but after that - I was done. It just started to bring up way too many negative memories.

I like when Henry tried to get rid of bossy bill out of his school. I wish I didn’t didn’t have him in this class. Well, I wish I actually didn’t want him because I don’t like bossy that much and I don’t like bossing friends even when some people bust me around Can you stop it please? That’s what she always says.

احساسات کتاب بیدردسر و مرتب نیستند و همین آشفتگی، رابطهها را باورپذیرتر میکند. با توجه به عنوان «هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال»، همین فضا به نظرم انتخاب درستی بود. نه شعار میدهد و نه زیادی احساسات میفروشد؛ برای همین اثرش طبیعیتر از آب درآمده. از بین نوشتههای Francesca Simon، «هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» برای من بیشتر با فضای خودش جواب داد تا با نتیجهگیریهای آماده.

I only read this book as it's a gift from my 8 year old niece who knows that I love to read books and surely I should read ALL books. Haha 😄 the book is just as painful as the TV show. Got to hand it to the author for being creative and showing another side of childhood I never imagined.

I read this book to get myself out of a reading slump. It was a very fun and easy-going book with very comprehendible language and funny chapters. My favorite chapter was the last chapter (Horrid Henry's Arch Enemy).

در کتاب هنری با روایتی پخته و حسابشده مواجه هستیم که از نظر فرم و محتوا قابلاعتناست. ریتم روایت کنترلشده است و تعادل مناسبی میان پیشبرد داستان و تعمق ایجاد میکند. خواندن این کتاب تجربهای غنی و قابلتأمل به همراه دارد.

«هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» بیشتر از یک عاشقانهٔ صافوساده، روی فاصلهها و حرفهایی دست میگذارد که آدمها نمیتوانند به هم بگویند. برای من جذابیت «هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» بیشتر در حس و فضای کلیاش بود تا در یک صحنه یا جملهٔ خاص.

در «هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» فاصلهٔ میان احساس آدمها و چیزی که به زبان میآورند، از خود ماجرا جذابتر است. با همهٔ انتخابهای «هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» موافق نبودم، اما همین مخالفت هم خواندنش را زندهتر کرد.

در «هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» فاصلهٔ میان احساس آدمها و چیزی که به زبان میآورند، از خود ماجرا جذابتر است. «هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» حال خودش را دارد و نمیشود خیلی راحت با یک کتاب دیگر عوضش کرد. فکر میکنم «هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» را بیشتر بهخاطر حسش یادم بماند تا خلاصهٔ داستانش.

«هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» رابطهها را زیادی مرتب و بیدردسر نشان نمیدهد و همین احساساتش را باورپذیرتر کرده. رابطهام با «هنری زلزله و عشق فوتبال» بیشتر حسی بود و فضا و لحنش بیشتر از یک صحنهٔ خاص روی من اثر گذاشت.

خنده دار بود
ولی بعضی کلمات زشت و بی ادبانه داره که مناسب بچه ها نیست

Five stars, as always. I'd hate to have this kid as a son, but he's always such fun to read about. I wish I'd written these books myself!
