A HAMSTER HOSTING A GAME SHOW?!?!

In Janet and Jake Tashjian's latest mother/son team effort calle EINSTEIN THE CLASS HAMSTER AND THE VERY REAL GAME SHOW, Ms. Moreno's class is off to compete on a televised game show with another elementary school. Along for the ride are Einstein, the class hamster, and his classroom comrades Ned, Bonnie and Marlon. The show is ready to go when the school principal decides it's a good idea to bring out Twinkle, the pet python! Well this sends the regular game show host flying out the door in fear, and it's Einstein's turn to shine - or is it? Pretty good follow up to the first Einstein book, and will entertain many beginning chapter book readers. For 2nd - 5th grades.

HAMSTERS, HO!!

The Great Texas Hamster Drive: An Original Tall Tale by Eric A. Kimmel

Pecos Bill and Slue Foot Sue are now married and have five kids. The littlest one, a girl named Sal, who Bill can't help but give her anything her little heart desires, wants just one little hamster. How much trouble can one little pet be? Well, since this is a tall tale, Sal didn't get just one hamster, but two! And boy did they multiply!!! I'm sure you can guess what happens next.

This is a cautionary tale to all you little ones out there who are thinking of geting a pet hamster. Beware! You might get more than you bargained for.

A picture book for ages 5 and older.
