PSLet's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series.
Illustrated by
Bernice Lum.
A young girl explains her pet hamster's habits and needs in this basic, appealing introduction to hamster care. Facts about such topics as different types of hamsters and cage cleaning are clearly presented in the simple text. The smiling narrator and her pet are the focus of the black-outlined illustrations with plenty of white space. The appended "Find Out More" activities expand the content.
