Overview
Meet the naughtiest little sister in children's fiction! This charming five-book paperback collection follows an unnamed but utterly unforgettable little sister as she gets into all sorts of scrapes, squabbles and silliness. Written by Dorothy Edwards and beautifully illustrated by Shirley Hughes, these gentle, funny short stories have delighted young readers for generations. Perfect for children aged 7-9 who are building reading confidence, this brand new boxed set makes a wonderful gift for any budding bookworm who loves stories about family, mischief and everyday adventures.
About the Books
This collection brings together five much-loved instalments in the My Naughty Little Sister series. In the original book, readers meet a stubborn, greedy little sister who causes chaos, from cutting off the cat's tail to eating all the trifle at a party. My Naughty Little Sister and Bad Harry sees her team up with the mischievous boy next door to make secret friends with a mouse and hide bread crusts around the house. My Naughty Little Sister's Friends takes the trouble further afield as she explores a chimney and learns to make sweets, with more friends joining the fun. When My Naughty Little Sister Was Good shows her helping Grannie bake a Christmas pudding and teaching Bad Harry a lesson, though readers may wonder if her good behaviour will last. Finally, More Naughty Little Sister Stories finds her refusing to have her photograph taken and showing off in front of Harry once again. Told through the eyes of an older sibling narrator, each short story has a warm, nostalgic charm that has made these tales a family favourite for generations. Shirley Hughes' classic illustrations bring every scrape and giggle vividly to life, making the stories ideal for reading aloud or for children reading independently.

The books are illustrated by Shirley Hughes, one of Britain's most celebrated children's illustrators, whose work has earned multiple awards and enduring popularity.
