The Great Hamster Massacre by Katie Davies- ESSENTIAL.

Davies, Katie.  The Great Hamster Massacre (Great Critter Capers), 208 pgs.  Beach Lane Books, 2011.  $12.99.  Language- G; Violence- PG.  Sexual Content- G.  This book is about a girl who gets two hamsters and their names are “Hamster #1” and “Hamster #2.”  Hamster #1 has babies.  The babies die overnight and Hamster #1 gets his leg bit off.  Hamster #2 mysteriously disappears?  Will they find out who is causing all this havoc?  I liked this book because it had some funny parts.  I liked the cartoon illustrations.  I liked the detail in the wording. It wouldn’t be good for younger elementary students because of the violence.   EL.  ESSENTIAL.  Student Reviewed: JL- age 9.
