Critic reviews

Funny and imaginative,Horrid Henry's Ketchup can make any non-reader pick it up and enjoy it

Good story, okay sound?

Would you consider the audio edition of Horrid Henry's Krazy Ketchup to be better than the print version?

Unfortunately, although the story itself is good, I found that the sound dynamics were not quite as good as expected. Sometimes, the sound effects were too loud, louder than the reader, and the voice wasn't quite loud enough. I found myself stuck between one level of sound and the next, as at times it was too quiet and at others too loud.
