A book you'll keep picking up

Most books are read once and put back on the shelf.

 

The Very Secret Diary of Horace Horrise is different.

One adventure.

One laugh.

One more page...

Then somehow you've read ten.

​

Warning: Reading "just one more story" has been known to result in unexpectedly late nights.
