When Scooter McCarthy asks Henry if he knows anyone who wants a paper route, Henry does - himself! Scooter says Henry isn't old enough, but Henry decides almost-eleven is old enough, and walks over to make his case. He gets distracted on the way and ends up with a jacket-ful of kittens, which create kitten-y chaos. Now Henry still doesn't have a paper route, and he has four kittens to get rid of (or make a case to keep - even though Ribsy would like to eat them). Henry may well ask why these things always happen to him, but they do work out in the end. Beezus and Ramona play important roles, though Henry's casual sexism is jarring today. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

HTML: Newbery Medalâ??winning author Beverly Cleary gives readers a hero they'll relate to, and root for, in this comical and inspiring novel about Henry Huggins's mission to prove himself worthy of his very own paper route. All the older kids work their own paper route, but because Henry is not eleven yet, Mr. Capper won't let him. Desperate to change his mind, Henry tries everything he can think of to show he's mature and responsible enough for the job. From offering free kittens to new subscribers, to hauling hundreds of pounds of old newspapers for his school's paper drive, there's nothing Henry won't try. But it might just be the irrepressible Ramona Quimby who shows Mr. Capper just how capable Henry is. The Henry Huggins books have been beloved touchstone classics for generations. They're funny and fast reads with appealing illustrations, sure to be welcomed by both eager and reluctant readers. No library descriptions found. |
