Horrible Harry and the Mud Gremlins

Great book and series of books for the younger reader in the family. Also a great way to get that younger person interested in reading.

In Horrible Harry and the Mud Gremlins by Suzy Kline you'll learn to listen to the rules. Harry convinces the class to go to where the teachers can't see them and they get in trouble. How will Harry ever learn to follow the rules? The problem starts at recess time when Harry tries to get his classmates to break the rules. He wants them to see the mud gremlins. I liked this story because even though Harry does bad stuff, he is still funny. All second graders would like Horrible Harry and all his adventures. Some other books you could read are: Horrible Harry and the Secret, Horrible Harry and the Green Slime, Horrible Harry and the Christmas Surprise, Horrible Harry in Room 2B, and Horrible Harry and the ant invasion.
