Lulu and the Hamster in the Night

(2) 1-3 Illustrated by Priscilla Lamont. In her sixth outing, Lulu takes in another animal in need, this time an underappreciated pet hamster named Ratty. Nervous to leave Ratty behind, Lulu and best friend/cousin Mellie smuggle him along on an overnight visit to their grandmother's house--despite knowing a rodent won't be welcome. "Oh, no" foreshadowing, humorous details, and frequent spot art keep the action moving at a spirited pace.
