Horrid Henry hates Thursdays because he has swimming lessons. It was funny because he thought there was a shark in the pool and he was scared of the deep end. He earns his badge even though he didn’t deserve it!

Henry can't swim as well as me. He is probably in stage zero and I am in stage two.

Horrid Henry hates his swimming lessons, but I disagree, I love them. His mum says he has to go to the lesson, so he goes with everything he needs, but says to the swimming teacher that he's forgotten his trunks, so the teacher says he has to wear a spare. The only ones he can find are lots of girls costumes, tiny trunks and a nappy....so he has to squeeze into the tiny ones. He pretends to be a shark and scares everyone out of the pool, but then there actually was a shark!

Good book

I rated this book a quarter rate because it was a book for troublemakers and the reason, I liked about the book was that it was very funny. The one I liked of the characters were Perfect Peter.

It was hilarious and good.

I didn't like it because I don't like horrid people. All the characters in the book seem bad, without any manned, especially Soggy Sid, the swimming teacher.

I liked this book because it was really funny!
Rude Ralph was funny when he howled ‘there’s a shark in the pool!’
Horrid Henry deserved his swimming badge because Perfect Peter was really mean to him at the beginning when he was boasting about his 50 metre badge.

Horrid Henry didn't know how to swim so he tricked everyone by telling there was a shark
