Winter According to Humphrey
Winter According to Humphrey | Betty G Birney
1 post | 3 read | 1 to read
A hamsterific celebration of the best time of the year Room 26 is abuzz. The students are making costumes and practicing their special songs for the Winter Wonderland program and Humphrey is fascinated by all the ways his classmates celebrate the holidays (especially the yummy food). He also has problems to solve like how to get Do-It-Now-Daniel to stop procrastinating, convince Helpful-Holly to stop stressing over presents, and come up with the perfect gift for Og the frog. Of course he manages to do all that while adding delightful heart and humor to the holiday season. Nominated for twenty-four state awards and the winner of seven, the Humphrey series is a hit across the country. And he's becoming a one school/one book favorite!

Pickpick

“Winter According to Humphrey” was a gift for my brother and I just so happened to pick it up. In it, a classroom hamster experiences a Christmas Wonderland with his classmates performing in it. The problem is, they are way too disorganized, from imperfect piano practice to tiring but hardworking crafting. If you like cute stories and/or books about pets, this is a good pick.

kevin.he [Continued] This book is written in first person in the viewpoint of the hamster. What I find interesting about this book is how different subplots build the main plot of the story. 4y
MissYaremcio Nicely done Kevin! I bet it didn't take long for you to finish and I liked the little preamble about it's origin story! 6/6 4y
