Did anyone else used to read Point Horror books? They were so popular when I was younger, much better than Goosebumps.

All the Famous Five books, all the Secret 7 and although I don't remember being a huge Roald Dahl fan, I do remember doing "Danny the Champion of the World" at school and absolutely loving every word of it

The one that sticks out for me, which i cant remember the title was about a chicken that ran about telling all his friends that the sky was gona fall down.
Im stumped about the title though. Think it was one of those ladybird books.
