1-3Humphrey's Tiny Tales series.
Illustrated by
Priscilla Burris.
In these installments in the classroom hamster's early-chapter-book spinoff series, Humphrey plays assistant in student Miranda's magic act (Trick) and he wants to find a way to march in the school fair parade with his Room 26 class (Surprise). The light and pleasant elementary-school stories are carried by Humphrey's amiable narrative voice and the generous spot art. Review covers these Humphrey's Tiny Tales titles: Humphrey's Mixed-Up Magic Trick and Humphrey's School Fair Surprise.
