About this product

Product Information

Anna and her brother, Tom, have always wanted a pet. And after their latest pestering campaign, their mother finally gives in and lets them choose a pair of hamsters from the local pet shop. But their happiness soon turns to horror when the hamsters are found mysteriously dead in their cage. Anna and Tom launch a full-scale investigation to determine who--or what--is behind the hamster homicides. Can they solve the case of the Great Hamster Massacre? Katie Davies' irresistibly funny mystery and Hanna Shaw's spot-on illustrations combine for a quirky, delightful read that is part detective tale, part diary, and altogether hilarious.

Reviews
"A flippy, fun and extremely fast-paced journey into the world of a very likable brother and sister--and their amusing family and friends. Intermittent silly pencil sketches fill the pages diary-style, creating a whimsical mood and adding comic relief.... Giggles are frequent among the kids in this book, and they will infect readers as well." -- BookPage, May 2011, "Inspired use of simple words, straightforward syntax and effective repetition make this a top pick for slow or reluctant readers...Under the plot's frothy surface lie serious depths...An auspicious debut."-- Kirkus Reviews, "This British import is an interesting mix of British humor with serious issues interspersed. Whimsical, cartoonish pen-and-ink illustrations accompany the story and help lighten the seriousness....This is the first in a series that will appeal to fans of Roald Dahl and Dick King-Smith." -- Booklist, July 1, 2011, "An interesting take on how children deal with grief and shock.... Anna's voice is engaging, and portrayals of various pets and neighbors (with accompanying hand-drawn side notes and cartoons) will entertain...give this dark comedy to reluctant readers, mystery lovers, and fans of narrator-illustrated fare like Jeff Kinney's "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" books or Tom Angleberger's The Strange Case of Origami Yoda (2010, both Abrams)." -- School Library Journal, September 2011, "For young readers who can handle a bit of the macabre with their giggles, this strange little tale will be perfectly appealing." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books , July/August 2011

    Item was still in original packing and as new as it can be. It was maybe a bit pricy, but still a better deal than regular shopping alternatives. Shipping time was quite ok. And a nice Thank you note on the invoice made it even better, like this company cared about giving a good service.
