More Adventures According to Humphrey cover

To celebrate his tenth birthday the whole Humphrey series has a smart new livery, repositioning him alongside perennial favourites such as Winnie-the-Pooh and Paddington.

When Humphrey hears about a sailing competition on Potter's Pond, he longs for a BIG-BIG-BIGGER adventure. And believe us, he gets one . . . but it isn't all smooth sailing. He helps out his classmates, takes an unsqueakably dangerous voyage of his own, and even comes face-to-face with a pirate!

Praise for Humphrey:

'An effective exploration of the joys and pains of making and keeping friends, which will strike a chord with many children.'Daily Telegraph

'A charming, feel-good tale.'Irish Times

'Humphrey's matter-of-fact, table-level view of the world is alternately silly and profound and Birney captures his unique blend of innocence and earnestness.'Publisher's Weekly

'Humphrey, a delightful, irresistible character, is big hearted, observant and creative.'
