Horrid Henry and the Mummy's Curse Published 2000

Horrid Henry indulges his favourite hobby - collecting Gizmos - has a bad time with his spelling homework, puts about a rumour that there is a shark in the swimming pool, and spooks Perfect Peter with the mummy's curse.

"I got the idea for Mummy's curse because we Americans call our mothers "mommy" and when I lived in England as a child I thought it was hilarious that British children called their mothers "mummy," which to me was like calling them "werewolf" or "dracula."
