Hubert Horatio Bartle Bobton-Trent
Description
Another fantastic, witty and incredibly original story from award-winning Lauren Child. Hubert Horatio or H for short is a genius at almost absolutely everything. His parents on the other hand aren't too good with money and fritter away the family fortune. It's up to Hubert and his friend, Stanton Harcourt to sort out the mess. Hubert Horatio Bartle Bobton-Trent, or H for short, is the answer to his wealthy parents' prayers. He is their dear companion, their fierce board game adversary, and their frequent guest at parties. However, Hubert's parents don't share his talent for accounting and can't imagine ever running out of money. Will Hubert be able to save the Bobton-Trent's fabulous estate - or might they be just as happy without it, after all? With exuberant collage illustrations and a hilarious text, award-winning author and illustrator Lauren Child has created an irreverent story about the true value of money and the dividends of happiness.
