Publisher's summary

At last, Henry Huggins's father has promised to take him fishing, on one condition. Henry's dog, Ribsy, has been in all sorts of trouble lately, from running off with the neighbor's barbecue roast to stealing a policeman's lunch. To go on the fishing trip, Henry must keep Ribsy out of trouble -- no chasing cats, no digging up lawns...and no getting anywhere near little Ramona Quimby, the pest of Klickitat Street.
©1982 Beverly Cleary (P)2009 HarperCollins Publishers

Great read

My boys (7,5,3) rarely agree on books. This one they all loved and asked for together.

Cute story!

Very cute story of a young boy and his mischievous dog in the Pacific Northwest. Nice narration. My 8-year-old daughter is currently reading this for homeschool. I easily enjoy these Cleary classics while I do chores with headphones and then I discuss them later with my daughter. Thanks Audible!

wonderful story to listen listen with my children

Neil Patrick Harris did a wonderful job narrating the story. I travel for work and usually have my three young boys with me and they love to listen to any Henry Huggins books. Neil Patrick Harris brings it to life!

Great except……

I don’t like when Henry says”I am the ghost of Henry Huggins I have come to hunt you “ to scoter
And how many times they say dumb and stupid and shut up
Otherwise great hilarious book

Great for little boys

Our two sons (4 and 6) love this book. While some of the details are a bit outdated, the overall themes of this book are timeless. Boys can identify with Henry's life, friends, and (mis-)adventures. We highly recommend this book.
