Private Passions

Radio 3, noon

If you’re a parent — or even a

young adult — the name

Perfect Peter, right, is likely to

be familiar. He’s the chief

antagonist of Horrid Henry,

antihero of the 25 children’s

books written by Francesca

Simon, which have been

translated into 31 languages

and sold 25 million copies.

Simon talks to Michael

Berkeley about her memories

of an upbringing near the

Malibu beaches, where her

father, Mayo Simon, was a

screenwriter. Her music

choices reflect her eventful

life and include Yiddish and

Breton folk songs, and Jascha

Haifetz playing Bach’s Double

Violin Concerto. Ben Dowell
