A small
boy has a problem. His father is giving him the countdown to bedtime
but the boy's pet hamster has other ideas. He is conducting a tour
for vacationing hamsters through the boy's bedroom and bath. There are
hamsters eating, swimming, playing and just relaxing everywhere
while the boy is trying to
get ready for bed. Meanwhile, more hamsters keep arriving by bus,
taxi, golf cart, and truck. Soon, there are so many hamsters that
the boy is forced to take charge of the situation and send the hamsters
packing. This very funny story is told, not in words, but by the very busy
cartoon-like artwork. Enjoy this great bedtime story for any age!
