      It’s not fair! howled Horrid Henry. I want a Hip-Hop Robot dog!

      Horrid Henry needed money. Lots and lots and lots of money. His parents didn’t need money, and yet they had tons more than he did. It was so unfair. Why was he so brilliant at spending money, and so bad at getting money?

      You have plenty of toys, said Mom.

      Which you never play with, said Dad.

      That’s ’cause they’re all so boring! screeched Henry. I want a robot dog!

      Too expensive, said Mom.

      Too noisy, said Dad.

      "But everyone has a Hip-Hop Robot Dog, whined Henry. Everyone but me."

      Horrid Henry stomped out of the room. How could he get some money?

      Yes! He could hold Peter’s Bunnykins for ransom. He could tell Peter his room was haunted and get Peter to pay him
