Summary: Poor Hooper Humperdink
Comment: This is a child's fantasy about what his birthday party could be. We don't know why Hooper Humperdink shouldn't come, and I felt sorry for the little guy as he hung around the periphery and watched the hundreds of other children swarm to this fantastic party. Fortunately, the party giver forgives Hooper for his failings and invites him after all. Phew!
This is an alphabet book in disguise because the guest list is written in alphabetical order. Children whose names are featured will get an extra lit bit of joy when they get to read their name, especially if it's an unusual one. My daughter is in there, so I know this. :-)

Summary: Poor Hooper Humperdink
Comment: It was alright of a book. I thought it was kind of sad how the narrator did now want to invite Hooper but invited everyone else from A to Z. It was pretty cute how they went through the alphabet when naming the kids who were invited. In the end he ends up having a change in heart and invites Hooper Humperdink. I liked the illistrations, they were very colorful and detailed. If your younger sibling or child is learning the alphabet, then this is the book to read to them.

Summary: Unforgetable-REALLY!
Comment: When we were younger, my mother use to read to my older brother, my older sister, and I every night. Although the census was generally divided, my mother could always appease each of us by reading "Hooper Humperdink...Not Him!" It was and still is undoubtedly our favorite book. My brother is now a US Marine. My sister is, as always, excelling in her second year of pharmacy school. I am attending a liberal arts university on scholarship with a major in biochemistry. The three of us still recall the back inside cover of the book, an illustration of a rollercoaster dotted with the letters of the alphabet. The routine after reading the book was to find all the letters of your name the quickest--and to this day we still know how to spell our names! Imagine that! My mother also remembers almost every line to the story. However, she now needs some refreshing and has now ordered a new copy, as we had given away our haggered original long ago to those we deemed worthy.
