Review by Horn Book Review

Humphrey, the class hamster, is surrounded by secrets. Some of them revolve around the class's Ancient Egypt unit and are shared by all the children, but secret handshakes and private clubs between friends become divisive. Then there's a big one: a student will be leaving the class. Birney understands elementary-school dynamics, and her characters are sympathetic even as they are predictable. (c) Copyright 2014.
