    About this audiobook

    For Harry, his second grade classroom, Room 2B, is the best place in the world. His teacher, Miss Mackle, is setting up an ant farm. And Harry is sure he will be chosen to take care of the creepy, crawly critters. After all, no one loves horrible things, like ants, more than Harry. When Horrible Harry and his classmates send ants climbing up the stairs of the school, no one is shocked. Find out why, and join Harry in three more adventures (including one with a deadly fish tank) in this lively audio production. The Horrible Harry series receives praise from teachers and librarians across the country. They know how irresistible the combination of squirmy things and a curious second grader is to young readers. Noted for his spirited readings of children's books, narrator Johnny Heller underscores young Harry's wonderful imagination and humor in his performance.

      Doug and his good friend Harry are excited by the new developments: their teacher is bringing an ant farm to the class for scientific observations. Doug and Harry aim to be great scientists, and Harry loves creepy crawlies. In fact, all the students are excited except Sidney, who covers his fear of ants with loud dramatics. Harry lands the coveted job of ant monitor, and then loses it when he can't listen to the teacher. To make matters worse, Sidney crashes into Song Lee during dance lessons because he won't open his eyes, and Harry swears revenge. He slides ice-cold water down Sidney's back after school, careless of how Sidney may respond. Sidney does strike back, and in an unexpected fashion. He manages to cast the blame on Harry for a terrible accident, and only through Song Lee's bravery does Harry escape punishment for something he didn't do. The story is fast, easy to read, and fun. Harry and Doug are well-developed in the limited space, and the plot feels natural and complete. Harry's crush on Song Lee is innocent, and I found it very cute. This series consistently focuses on the importance of science, and how excited the students are to study it; that is a frequently unexplored topic that is done well here. The only complaint I have is that the last chapter seems like an awkward appendage, since the chapter before neatly wraps up the plot and even has a pithy last sentence. Overall, the Harry series is a pleasant read that will appeal to children, if it is not my favorite of the beginning chapter book offerings available.

      I would not necessarily recommend this for more than independent reading. It would have good use there because the words are familiar and the stories are simple. Struggling readers may benefit from these books the most (2nd and 3rd grades would be the most appropriate grade in which to use this text). The book does not encourage much in the way of deeper thinking or problem solving, but it is straightforward and creative.
