Harry, his best friend George and his mother Belinda have got to be the only bugs in this world that I would ever call adorable. Banks manages to tell a tale of these centipedes in all their creepy crawly-ness, while at the same time creating characters the reader sympathizes with and roots for. There is one certain scene when I was utterly creeped out at the thought of these slithery insects from a "Hoo-Min" point of view while I was captured in the intense moment for Harry and George and whether they would escape with their lives.

Harry the poisonous centipede : a story to make you squirm Harry the poisonous centipede : a story to make you squirm

When Harry and a George find a strange object full of those yellow-curve tree-droppings, and they are taken and carried far beyond the shores of their tropical home. In their containment, they meet a female centipede named Josie, who is a no-meat eater (which Harry and George think is very uncentipedish) who knows a lot about those huge, strange creatures called Hoo-Mins. And then when they’re finally in the no-top world again, they’re in for a rude awakening.

Reviews

Reason for Reading: Specifically I am collecting this publisher's list under the title of "First Modern Classics" aimed at younger readers originating from the UK house. The titles on this list, which started in 2009, all by British authors, are a unique selection for North American readers, though a few international classics are included. Lynne Reid Banks is mostly known in NA for her Indian in the Cupboard series. I had heard of this book but never actually seen it.
