When Henry Huggins has nothing to do, Scooter comes by passing out papers because he has a paper route. But the paper route is a hard job to get, espicially when Henry puts an ad in the paper for the paper drive, and he gets millions of papers! At the end, he gets the paper route.

This was the first Henry book I read, so it got me into the rest of them. Imagine a ten-year-old boy trying to look like a grown-up while a kitten pokes its head out of his jacket. This book is a delightful voyage into the lives of kids and animals in America.

This book is hilarious! I'd give it 10 stars if I could. All the emotions are there -- frustration, longing & joy. While the book is very, very funny, great lessons are taught along the way about perseverance, patience and having high hopes!

This is a good collection of literature from the Enlightenment to the early 20th century. Some of the choices were wuite interesting such as Wuthering Heights as the example of the Victorian novel, (I, myself, would have chosen Jane Eyre), but all in all this is a well put-together collection. The biographical information before each author is also interesting and puts the works into context. This is amust-have for English majors and literature fanatics alike.
