Hector Fuller is a wumblebug. A more likeable bug you'll never find. But you'll also never find a wumblebug anywhere other than the pages of a book -- this book, to be exact.
One morning Hector Fuller is playing the piano in his wumblebug hole, as content as a bug can be when his home is taken over by a hopping flea circus! Fleas are everywhere, hanging from the ceiling and bouncing off the walls. To make matters worse, Hector's allergic to fleas -- all six of his legs are itching like crazy! There's only one thing for poor Hector to do: He'll have to find a new home.
On his search, Hector meets new creatures and sees amazing sights, but will he ever find a home as perfect as his snug little hole?

From School Library Journal:
Grade 2-4--Hector, an imaginary "wumblebug," is evicted from his cozy hole in the ground when a noisy flea circus moves in. He ventures out in search of a new home and meets up with a variety of small critters and small adventures. After experiencing mishaps while trying to sleep in a variety of places, he finally decides, "I'm no water bug. Not a tree bug either, come to think of it. I'm a wumblebug, and I'm going home." Shreeve does a good job of evoking the early spring setting without overwhelming young readers with too much description. Amusing full-page, black-and-white pencil sketches appear throughout. With short sentences and brief chapters, this story is well pitched to beginning chapter-book readers.--Shelley B. Sutherland, Niles Public Library District, IL
