Humphrey, a classroom hamster, writes his own stories during the creative writing unit. He helps some of the (human) students with their writing and with family struggles during his weekend visits to their homes. As with the earlier books in the series, Humphrey is a likable character and the (easily resolved) childhood conflicts will resonate with readers.
