| General note |
Horrid Henry: Rock Star is part of the popular Horrid Henry series by Francesca Simon, illustrated by Tony Ross. Aimed at young readers (typically ages 6–10), the book combines humor, mischief, and relatable childhood scenarios. It features the famously naughty Henry, whose wild imagination and rebellious behavior often land him in trouble. The story explores themes such as ambition, creativity, rivalry (especially with his brother, Perfect Peter), and the humorous gap between fantasy and reality. With exaggerated characters and energetic illustrations, the book keeps readers engaged while also highlighting the consequences of selfishness and bad behavior — all in a light, entertaining tone. This book encourages reluctant readers through short chapters, accessible language, and laugh-out-loud moments. It's ideal for fans of humorous fiction and readers who enjoy characters who break the rules (and learn from it — sometimes). |

| Summary, Abstract, Review |
In Horrid Henry: Rock Star, the mischievous Henry dreams of becoming a famous rock star. Inspired by the fame and excitement of the music world, he sets out to form his own rock band, The Killer Boy Rats. With his usual overconfidence and rebellious attitude, Henry imagines himself wowing crowds, signing autographs, and living a life of stardom. However, things don't go quite as planned. He clashes with bandmates, struggles to actually play music, and ends up causing chaos at home and school. Meanwhile, his goody-goody brother, Perfect Peter, tries to be helpful — but only adds to Henry's frustration. Packed with humor, sibling rivalry, and Henry's over-the-top antics, this story is a fun look at ambition, music dreams, and the hilarious disasters that follow Henry wherever he goes. It's one of the four stories in the Horrid Henry collection, and a favorite for readers who enjoy funny, fast-paced stories. |
