This was such a precious children's story filled with humor, lovable characters, and great life lessons!
My one complaint is that there was a lot of misinformation regarding hamster care in this book which is concerning knowing how impressionable the target audience is.
Overall though, this was a really heartwarming introduction to the Humphrey series and I will definitely continue reading onwards!

It was boring. It wasn't what I was expecting it to be. Just didn't care what happened.

Parts a little old for my kiddos to understand and swapped out some PG words, but otherwise super cute for a one school one book family read

This was such a great book! Perfect for reading aloud to my six year old (one of our first real chapter book read). Humphrey is a great main character who leads us through classroom and different family situations with humor and a bit of adventure. We are looking forward to reading more Humphrey books!

A cute little story about a school hamster. I read it with my 9yr old and he liked the way Humphrey was always curious about his surroundings.
