To celebrate his tenth birthday the whole Humphrey series has a smart new livery, repositioning him alongside perennial favourites such as Winnie-the-Pooh and Paddington.

When Humphrey hears about a sailing competition on Potter''s Pond, he longs for a BIG-BIG-BIGGER adventure. And believe us, he gets one . . . but it isn''t all smooth sailing. He helps out his classmates, takes an unsqueakably dangerous voyage of his own, and even comes face-to-face with a pirate!

''Humphrey, a delightful, irresistible ch
