About book Winter According To Humphrey (2012)

I really liked it because the book was hilarious. I liked how the book had funny words in it like Humphrey would say "unsqueakably thankful" which is meant to be "unspeakably thankful". I thought it was funny when Og's best friend Humphrey was giving Og a very tasty frog present which was froggy food sticks. It was also funny when a boy said Humphrey was his "good luck charm" for doing piano. I'm really happy I read this and I'm looking forward to reading more. Everyone's favorite classroom pet hamster is back in his 9th book! This time, Humphrey's class is putting on a Winter Wonderland pageant and of course, Humphrey's getting in on all the action. In addition to helping his classroom friends make costumes, practice their lines, and buy gifts (well, as much as any hamster can), Humphrey's learning all about different winter holidays by going home with the kids from Room 26. He's taking notes on different ways to celebrate, ending each chapter with "winter wonderings", and enjoying tons of yummy food. Of course, this book is just as funny as Humphrey's other books, and it ends with a heart-warming special visit from Santa!
