In my opinion, I really liked this book. One reason why is it is a little funny and a little bit of a mystery too. Another reason why is that the story takes lots of stories and combines it into the whole book about this character Humphreys interactions with the students. The last reason why is that the students have lots of things happen to them and they have to solve them and they do things to lead up to solving it. *** SPOILER ALERT *** My favorite part is when one of the students sneaked Humphrey to watch them practice the Christmas play. You might like this book if you like mysteries, science fiction or adventure. You should read this book because it is cool to read what a hamster thinks inside a book.

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!
