This book has a lot of laughs, for both kids and parents. Each chapter is a new adventure in Henry's life. Henry gets two guppies and finds out that they are quite...prolific. He enters Ribsy in a dog show...with hilarious results. He loses his friend's football in an unusual way... and comes up with an even more unusual way to buy him a new one.
Henry is funny, Henry is smart, Henry is imaginative....and while he isn't perfect, he does tend to do the right thing most of the time. There are a few other books in the Henry Huggins series: Henry and Ribsy, Henry and the Clubhouse, and Henry and Beezus, to name a few. I believe we will be checking a few of these out of the library for some fun summer reading! And of course, reading anything by Beverly Clearly tends to take me right back to childhood when I read all the Ramona books several times over.It's very cool to read them again as an adult.
