Not quite as funny as the others and pretty predictable, Harriet actually shows a selfish side for once with her halloween candy. It bites her in the butt in the end though as all the hoarding and eating of candy makes her turn green with nausea. At least in this book she didn't have a nightmare about someone taking her candy, although again there were several scenes where she worried about it. If her nervouness doesn't end I can totally see sedatives being required as an adult :D
Harriet does not want to share her halloween candy so she hides it. After running out of hiding spots she figures she should just eat it all. She eats so much she gets a stomach ache and only then does she share with her brother.
Harriet is instructed to share her Halloween candy with her little brother, Walt, but she doesn't really. She gaurds it jealously and finally eats it to protect it. After eating enough to get sick, she finally does share.
