Henry Huggins

 I finished the second book of my challenge this morning, a children’s book titled “Henry Huggins” by Beverly Cleary.

I chose to read a book popular in the year of my birth — 1950 — and this looked like a delightful way to start the year.

It is the story of Henry Huggins and his neighborhood friends on his street called Klackitat St.  Also featured in the book is his dog Ribsy.  There was a bit of tension at the end involving Ribsy but it all worked out well.

Will I read the next one in the series?  Not sure as I have a very stuffed library thanks to Kindle’s Stuff your Kindle day.  But I will definitely keep it on my list of future possibilities.


It is a cold day here in the Fort — winter has definitely arrived but at least it has been clear and sunny.  I need to make a Target run today, hopefully early, and I will have Bean for awhile so we are going to clean out and straighten up my craft stash.  It actually all needs to be donated but we will see.

Have a wonderful day as the world gets back to normal!
