Adventure According to Humphrey
Betty G. Birney
A Special Publication for World Book Day 2008
Ahoy, maties!
I’ve had my share of adventures as the beloved pet hamster of Room 26. But when I heard about the sailing competition on Potter’s Pond, I longed for a BIG-BIG-BIGGER adventure of my own. Believe me, I got it . . . but it wasn’t all smooth sailing. I helped out my classmates Gail, Richie and Kirk, took an unsqueakably dangerous (but thrilling) voyage of my own, and even came face to face with a pirate!
Would I do it again? Aye-aye, you bet I would! It’s all in a day’s work for me!
Your adventurous pal,
Humphrey
p.s. Have some Fun with Humphrey !
