Humphrey might be the only one who can solve the mystery of the missing treasure hunt prize!

Garth has a surprise for his friends when they get to his party—a treasure hunt! Riddles are hidden all around his backyard and he put the prize in the best hiding spot of all—Humphrey’s cage. Only Humphrey knows something Garth doesn’t: someone stole the prize!

Humphrey doesn’t know who took it, but he is good at solving mysteries. Can he put the clues together and save the treasure hunt?

With sweet illustrations and an easy reading level, Humphrey’s Tiny Tales are hamster-iffic for emerging readers.
