Book description
Dear friends,
I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE sharing my adventures as a classroom hamster with
all my friends. But sometimes my paw gets tired from so much
writing! To give it a rest, I've written some shorter tales that are
every bit as funny and exciting as my According to Humphrey books.
They're called Humphrey's Tiny Tales and they've even got
illustrations! (I'm quite pleased at how cute I look in the pictures.)
I'm unsqueakably excited to share my new stories with you and I
think Humphrey fans and new younger readers will be excited, too!
Your furry friend,
Humphrey
My Great Big Birthday Bash!
It's party time in this Tiny Tale. Kirk's having a birthday bash,
and everyone in Room 26 is invited, including Humphrey. The party is
FUN-FUN-FUN! There are games to play and presents to unwrap, and of
course cake! But Humphrey is SAD-SAD-SAD. No one knows when he was
born, so he can never have a party on his birthday. Or can he?
Luckily his friends in Room 26 have other ideas . . .
Illustrated throughout with black and white line illustrations by
Penny Dann.
