Henry Huggins

I forgot how much I loved this book. Henry Huggins brings back good memories of being a kid. Like Henry, my friends and I spent our time outside, and usually had some fun project going. Taking a jar full of black/inedible berries door to door to have our neighbors try to guess their number and win a "special" eraser. Knowing exactly why my Mom was yelling my name from upstairs...she had found the jar of frozen bugs in the freezer. Okay, enough reminiscing. Henry just seems like the kind of boy that every kid would want for a friend. He had a great dog, good business sense, and a lot of spunk. This is a great book for kids and a fun way for parents to remember the joys of being a kid.
