Humberto was very busy reading. He had no time for his friends. He wanted to read all the good books ever written. His neighbors would invite him to play, but Humberto always had a book he had to read.
“Humberto, the Bookworm Hamster” sparks the imagination and natural curiosity of a child. Mayra has captured the essence of a true bookworm in Humberto. She’s given children an introduction into the wonderful world of books that can last a lifetime and the meaning of true friendship.
Kit Grady’s illustrations are charming. They pull you into Humberto’s world and show you the wonder of the many books he’s read as well as his animal friends.

Maybe I can ‘talk’ our boss Joy into taking all the animals here at the V Zoo on a field trip to the local library. Wouldn’t that be fun? I can just see it. Billy would be swinging from the lights . . .
Got to go. See you back here Sunday for more zoo news.
