Bookroo's summary

Humphrey, the classroom hamster, is thrilled for the holidays, but chaos looms. With Daniel struggling to practice and Holly fretting over gifts, can Humphrey bring joy to Room 26? As the Winter Wonderland pageant approaches, Humphrey must find a way to help his friends and discover the perfect gift for Og. Will his cleverness be enough to ensure a joyful holiday for all?

From the publisher

It’s the HAPPY-HAPPY-HAPPY holidays! The holidays are coming and Humphrey is unsqueakably excited. He loves to hear about all the different ways his friends in Room 26 celebrate and to watch them make costumes and learn songs for the Winter Wonderland pageant. (He even squeaks along!) But with so much to do, will the holidays go according to plan? Do-It-Now-Daniel is having trouble practicing, Helpful-Holly can’t stop worrying about making presents for her friends, and Humphrey still has to find a gift for Og! Good thing Humphrey is one smart hamster who can help them all fill the season with JOY-JOY-JOY! Nominated for twenty-four state awards and the winner of seven, the Humphrey series is a hit across the country. And he’s becoming a one school/one book favorite!
