‘Highly illustrated, laugh-a-minute, subversively “historical”‘ – Guardian

Discover the rudest, snobbiest, most chaotic new voice in children’s fiction, with this hilarious, mostly historical diary series starring the famous royal that everyone loves to hate, from bestseller Danny Wallace.

Prince Henry is eight and a half, and definitely the BEST at EVERYTHING. The best at jousting, the best at sword fighting, the best at archery and wrestling, and stealing pies from the kitchen. But after a mysterious stranger challenges Henry to a series of competitions, nothing seems to be going his way. Can Henry prove to everyone that they’re wrong, he’s right (as always), and he IS the best at everything? And just who is this mysterious stranger anyway?!

Horrible Histories meets Horrid Henry meets Loki, in the highly illustrated, laugh-out-loud diary adventures of a royally awful young Henry VIII illustrated throughout by Tor Freeman.
