Humphrey's point of view, (you can learn a lot by caring for another species) is by turns humorous and helpful, as he strives to fix human issues whenever encountered. This book is a chapter book with no pictures and it was the first time reading a book like this to my nephew. Bert recaptures Humphrey with his baseball cap and realizes that the wheelchair does not limit him as much as he thought. She refuses to take him home, so a system is created where volunteers take Humphrey home every weekend.
The World According to Humphrey by Betty G. Birney
The combination of such visually sophisticated pages and simplistic captions make this a top-heavy, unsatisfying title. Besides the usual bouncy castles, sponge-throwing games and painted faces, there will be a contest for best class spirit. With illustrations that startle in their manic comedy and deadpan direct address and with a narrative that follows four endearingly sardonic characters trying to push past (sometimes successfully) their fear-causing natures, this book instantly joins the classic ranks of Captain Underpants and The Stinky Cheese Man. After he turned off the lights and left, I chomped on the lettuce I'd saved and basked in the warm glow of the streetlight--and my new friendship with Aldo. I was trying to find a good lapbook about hamsters in general, but they are less common than I would like.
He’s also smart, having learned to spell in only a week, and has a propensity to repeat exclamations thrice, “Glad-glad-glad! Normally, I'm not into the personified pet story but I set out to try The World According to Humphrey after discovering it as a recommendation in the new 2020 Sonlight Curriculum Kindergarten core. Through this first-person narrative from the perspective of a classroom pet, young readers will see that first impressions are not always accurate; that people are multifaceted, and you can't really understand a person until you see all aspects of his/her life; that sometimes, when people have problems, it takes an outsider - like Humphrey!

Being alone at night is initially frightening for Humphrey, but he soon meets the school custodian, Aldo Amato. Mac picks Humphrey out of all the hamsters at the Pet-O-Rama and gives him a tiny notebook and pencil, knowing he will quickly pick up reading and writing.
I was dozing when she first came to Pet-0-Rama, as I do during the day because hamsters are more active at night. I didn't know what Halloween was, but it sure sounded scary, especially when they talked about bringing bats and witches and even worse--cats--right into the classroom!

I tried to squeak to him about all the creatures, like me, that are also nocturnal and Aldo listened. I found this book completely intriguing and I couldn't wait to find out what happened next after each chapter ended! I was about to bite him--pure instinct--but then I remembered: This is the son of the Most Important Person at Longfellow School.On the way to work she said, "Humphrey, I hate to tell you, but this is my last day in Room 26 and I'm going to miss you more than you’ll ever know.

This book is also educational as it describes social skills, for example taking responsibility and looking after a living being. The Humphrey series has quite a few faithful borrowers among my library patrons, thus piquing my interest. She said it was great to be back and what a wonderful class it was, which obviously pleased the room mothers. While he is the most important man in the world at Longfellow school, his secret is that no one at home listens to him, especially his children.
She is a good-hearted kid, and she gets in less trouble once Garth's issues are ironed out and he is not so disruptive and giggle inducing.
