Horace Horrise – Mischievous Scout: The Early Adventures

Meet Horace Horrise – the UK's funniest, liveliest and most gloriously mischievous young scout.

​

For the first time, all nine original Horace Horrise adventures have been brought together in one complete volume, following Horace's unforgettable journey from a boy who desperately wants to become a scout to the day he finally faces his investiture... or does he?!

​

Along the way, Horace gets hopelessly lost, accidentally causes mayhem wherever he goes, outwits (and occasionally outwits himself), encounters eccentric adults, survives family disasters, makes lifelong friends and repeatedly discovers that doing your best can sometimes lead to the biggest catastrophes.

 

Packed with laugh-out-loud humour, unexpected twists and stories within stories, these adventures celebrate friendship, family life, scouting and the wonderful chaos of growing up. Fans of Just William will feel instantly at home, while today's readers will discover a thoroughly modern hero whose enthusiasm is always greater than his judgement.

​

Whether you're discovering Horace for the first time or returning to enjoy his earliest escapades, Horace Horrise – Mischievous Scout: The Early Adventures is the perfect place to begin.

 

Nine adventures. One mischievous scout. Countless disasters.
