Friendship According to Humphrey
Friendship According to Humphrey | Betty G. Birney
3 posts | 2 read
After the holidays, Humphrey is shocked by a big surprise in Room 26-a new class pet! Humphrey tries to be welcoming, but Og the frog doesn't respond to any of his friendly squeaks or visits (remember, he has a lock-that-doesn't-lock). Plus, the students are so interested in Og, they almost stop paying attention to Humphrey altogether. Humphrey doesn't like the mad-bad-sad feelings he's had since Og came, but luckily he still gets to have adventures with different kids on the weekends. Friendship can be tricky, but Humphrey is an intrepid problem-solver. If any hamster can become buddies with a frog, he can.

Humphrey books are G‘s new obsession now that she has a hamster. Elizabeth joined our family a few weeks ago (followed by Florence‘s hamster Cupcake) and I think I‘m more obsessed than my kids are. 🥰

MicheleinPhilly SQUEEEEE!!! 5y
peaKnit They are so fun! We had Sir Twitcherson. He got out and ate my daughters project president poster, we still say “Remember when Twitchy ate Obama?!” Good memories! 5y

LeahBergen Ohhhhh!!!! I had two gerbils when I was little called Bob and Doug MacKenzie (you‘d have to be Canadian, I think, to recognize their names 😆😆). 5y
Chrys Unfortunately I think my son is a little old for the target audience for the book(he‘s 18), but he just got his first hamster a couple of months ago (named Noodle) 5y
Reviewsbylola What kind of hamster is Noodle? Elizabeth is a Syrian and I‘m in love with her. The other hamster is a winter white dwarf hybrid and she is super cute and adorable too. @Chrys 5y
Reviewsbylola Yeah, def don‘t recognize them. 😆😆 @LeahBergen 5y
Reviewsbylola My older daughter is really into them. Younger daughter not so much! @lele1432 5y
Reviewsbylola Oh, that‘s funny!!! @peaknit So far I‘ve only let my girls hold the hamsters in the bath tub so they can‘t get away. My mom wanted to take bets on how long it would be before one of them escapes. 😬 5y
Chrys Noodle is a Syrian as well, super friendly little guy. We all adore him (edited) 5y

Little Lily loves to read. Interrupt her and she‘ll say, “Be quiet, I‘m trying to read!” I couldn‘t be prouder of her!!

1. In bed, nursing the teething baby to sleep. (I think he just dozed off! 🙌🏼)
2. I‘m beta reading a book for a friend. 😍 I also started Friendship according to Humphrey because my firstborn asked me to read it after he finished.
3. Usually a small clone of my husband brings it to me and sweetly asks me to read it. Oh, for myself? I usually just search for whatever speaks to me in that particular moment of my life. #tuesdaytidbits

SilversReviews How sweet you have a little helper choosing books. 😊 Thanks for playing. 6y
