Nine hilarious adventures. One unforgettable Scout.

Meet Horace Horrise – the UK's funniest, liveliest and naughtiest young person.

From desperately trying to become a Scout to finally earning his investiture, Horace's journey is packed with mishaps, misunderstandings, good intentions and spectacular chaos. Every adventure stands on its own, but together they tell the wonderfully funny story of one boy's determination to do his best... even when everything goes gloriously wrong.

Inside this collection you'll join Horace as he:

• Tries to become a Scout.
• Gets hopelessly lost on his way to his very first meeting.
• Accidentally creates chaos at a family party.
• Plans his own narrowboat adventure.
• Survives a day out with his mischievous grandad.
• Turns a church parade into front-page news.
• Finds himself chasing shoplifters.
• Discovers an unusual business opportunity with a rickshaw.
• Faces the biggest day of his Scout life—his investiture.

Inspired by the timeless humour of Just William, these nine stories combine British comedy, memorable characters and laugh-out-loud situations with warmth, friendship and the spirit of Scouting.

Perfect for teenagers and adults who enjoy witty, character-driven comedy, nostalgic British humour and stories that leave you smiling long after you've finished.

If you've ever been a Scout, know a Scout, or simply enjoy comedy where good intentions lead to unforgettable disasters, you'll love Horace Horrise.
