Hector learns a lesson . . .

This book continues with the very successful formula of presenting an exciting adventure for children and an interesting parable for adults. As a family we enjoy rereading this book multiple times and reliving Hector's adventures. We are eagerly awaiting the next book in the series.

I love these books. Once Hectors starts looking for a new place to live, he has one adventure after another.

Hector Fuller is great. It is a book that you don't want to be over. You want to keep reading it and reading it.

Fun read-aloud!

I am a school librarian and have been reading Hector Finds a Fortune to my first graders. They absolutely love this book! It's very funny and also teaches kids a good deal about insects. This is a great book to read out loud as well as an excellent chapter book for beginning readers. My students and I look forward to Hector's further adventures!
