Things are getting really interesting with this book! I had just gotten rather fed up with the formulaic nature of some of the middle books and now we have one going in a different direction. I am fascinated to see where Cowell takes this series for the last few books.

"I'd rather not say," said the cat. HAHAHA!!

This book would be a great way to teach kids why you shouldn't try to label people based on what you yourself identify as. I do worry though that some comments would be difficult for children of multi-racial families.

This book was problematic, boring, and very old. I do not know how a modern child could relate to the world of Henry Huggins, as they would have to have most aspects of it explained to them by someone who lived through the 50s.

It is easy to see why this book is a classic. It is beautifully written, gorgeously illustrated, and has utterly timeless storytelling.

This book had a wonderful message about how we're all brother and sister to one another, no matter how different we may seem.
