The Great Hamster Massacre

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Hannah Shaw. This quirky British import follows Anna's quest to get a pet and the disastrous results of her actions. With the help of her friend Suzanne and her little brother Tom, Anna tries to solve the mystery of one dead hamster and one who's gone AWOL; the story ends before the culprit is unmasked. Anna's candid, humorous voice pairs well with Shaw's doodle-ish black-and-white illustrations.
