Horrible Harry and the Christmas Surprise
It’s Christmastime, but with Miss Mackle in the hospital, no one feels much like celebrating. Maybe Harry can think of a way to cheer up Miss Mackle and put the holiday spirit back in Room 2B.
If you’ve been reading this blog for any period of time, you know about my friendship with Horrible Harry. I love Horrible Harry and the Christmas Surprise because it shows a softer side of Harry.

Horrible Harry and the Holidaze
The holiday season is here, and the kids in Room 3B are learning about all the different ways people celebrate. In addition to Christmas and Hanukkah, there’s Kwanzaa, Three Kings’ Day, Korean New Year, and more. All the talk about holidays has everyone feeling festive. Everyone, that is, except Harry. He doesn’t seem to care about the holidays, the class pet, or even the new student in class. It’s clear that something is bugging Harry, but what could it be?
I love that this book briefly touches upon other holiday celebrations. This would be a great choice when learning about holidays and traditions from around the world.

Jingle Bells, Batman Smells (P.S. So Does May)
It’s holiday time, and Room One is doing lots of fun things to celebrate. Like making elf costumes! And singing joyful songs!

I love reading this book with my students who need a gentle reminder about kindness for all!
