|summary=Even a humble classroom hamster can be excited about Christmas – although Humphrey, with his ability to help all his classmates out, and his good scores in the spelling bees held in lessons, could hardly be called humble. As usual here he has to bear witness to children not quite having the time of their lives – one is running herself into the ground making her own gifts to give to everyone she knows. It's all very well the school putting on a seasonal spectacular in the gym, but what about the boy who exaggerates his piano prowess, and what can be done for the boy who sings like a foghorn? Even more serious than that, what about the adult who could even hinder Humphrey's own participation in the school show?!
