“Henry Huggins” is the debut book of the American writer Beverly Cleary, which was published in 1950 and immediately brought success to the author. Over the next 50 years Cleary wrote about 30 more books and became, in the words of her young readers, “a real living classic.”
The book has six stories. Henry meets Ribsey and takes him home by bus. Passengers will remember this trip for a long time. And Henry and Ribsey will bring home a police car. In the second story, Henry gets a guppy fish. Suddenly, guppies begin to breed so quickly that they fill all the cans in the house and literally evict Henry from his room. In the third story, Henry loses a brand new soccer ball from a dangerous boy. A neighbor fisherman offers Henry extra money, but to get the right amount, Henry will have to catch more than a thousand night crawls. In the fourth story, Henry gets the main role in the Christmas operetta, and Henry terribly does not want to play it. He comes up with a way to evade participation in the production, but none of his plans work. Avoiding shame helps the case ... and Ribsey. In the fifth story, Henry shows Ribsey at a dog show. The dog is acting ugly. And Henry's hope of winning the silver cup is fading by the minute. In the sixth story, the friendship of Ribsey and Henry will undergo a serious test, as the former owner of Ribsey appeared.
