Betty Birney September 2009

We were delighted to have Betty Birney over from America to launch The World According to Humphrey.
Betty is famous for writing the hugely successful Humphrey The Hamster series (he is the school Hamster) together with the acclaimed series The Princess & The Peabodys and Sassafaras Springs as well as cartoons and a TV movie. She’s even written for Disney!
She also has a wonderful website which you can explore. http://www.bettybirney.com/index.html
