School According To Humphrey (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
Another great book in this series! I liked that there's a new set of students (new school year), with a new set of issues to deal with-keeps the story fresh. The old students make an appearance here and there, which was a nice way to connect the two school years. This one dealt a lot with learning to get along with new people and working together. There was also a plotline about a student that had issues with being on time/getting distracted, and although they resolved it, I don't think it was a 'true' solution to the problem. Speaking as a family who always seems to be dealing with running late (ever since having kids), I don't think Humphrey's solution would really work long-term, but it was a cute solution. Audience: Grades 2 and up classroom teachers and studentsAppeal: This book is told from the point of view of the classroom pet hamster, Humphrey. It is an "unsqueakably" good read aloud. It deals with beginning a new school year. It would be great for students that are nervous about starting a new school year. Humphrey adds a new "rule for school" at the end of each chapter.The first Humphrey book, The World According to Humphrey, was the intermediate Nebraska Golden Sower Award winner in 2008.
