4-0 out of 5 stars Very good owner's book for children and a good basic book
Reviews of this book seem to be all over the map. Well, I raised about 20+ hamsters (I lost count) since I was a child and I had a small library of books on them. I suppose I can claim to be experienced and well-read at the very least. Mark Evans's book covers a broad range of owner-breeder topics at a level of reading which is excellent for young pet owners. The book is well-illustrated and reasonably thorough for its targeted audience. It focuses mostly on the care of hamsters than on the breeding of them. It is probably the best hamster book for new and young pet owners and it is endorsed by the ASPCA. If you're getting a hamster as a pet for your child, buy this book for your child; but to round-out your knowledge as a responsible supervising parent, buy yourself a copy of "Hamsters" by Otto Von Frisch (if you're getting a Syrian) or "Dwarf Hamsters" by Sharon Vanderlip (if you're getting a dwarf). Incidentally, I gave the book four stars because its advice sometimes gets too demanding and a reasonable amount of common sense needs to be applied for moderation.

2-0 out of 5 stars UGH
I hate this book. Sure, the pictures are nice, but most of the info is out dated. Honestly, the first time I read this book I gagged. I am an expert on hamsters, and books like these drive me NUTS. Following thi book could actually kill your hamster.

4-0 out of 5 stars cool book
this book is cool.it showed a lot about hamsters.i gave it to my sister to look at for a while because she has a hamster and she didnt know very much about it and it looked like it was sufficating.but after she read the book it looked much better. i only gave this book four stars because i already new everything in it but its still a good book.

5-0 out of 5 stars AWSOME, JUST GREAT!!!!!
This is a hamster owners must-have!!!!It is awsome with great pictures and good facts.If you ever have a question about a hamster, this is the book to have!!!

3-0 out of 5 stars Kids guide
I already owned a hamster before, but I thought that I should read a little bit about them before I got my next one.I was dissapointed withthis book.The pictures are really nice, but I did not learn anythingabout caring for hamsters.The book would be good if I was a young kid (5or6), but for anyone who is older, there is not information that is reallysomething thatcan be used.It talks about things such as weighing yourhamster and taking it to the vet, which is something that most hamsterowners do not do (don't get me wrong- some do).Also, they really onlytalked about one type of hamster after a brief, and I mean briefdescription of a few of the others.So, I would suggest this book if thechild is young and is about to get thier first hamster, but not for olderkids because they will not learn anything that isn't obvious.Example: (this is a list of things to remember) *Don't kiss your hamster, *Never,ever hit your hamster.On the other hand- the pictures are"live" and very colorful.The words are simple.Also, after allthose cute pictures, who could say no to owning a hamster! ...

4-0 out of 5 stars I would recommend it for young readers....
I would recommend this book to children of young ages. It teaches the very basics on hamster care but does not go into depth about these things like I was hoping . : / If you have a child between the ages of 6 or 7 to 10 this would be a GREAT book for them to understand how to groom ,when to feed, what to feed,and how to set up there cages . : ) ...

5-0 out of 5 stars An ideal introductory guide
I only wish I'd had an invaluable concise guide like this 20 years ago when I had a short-lived pet hamster (whom I found out years later had actually been two hamsters; my parents secretly bought me a second after the first died, but the second died even quicker).Probably the first mistake most otherwise well-intentioned people make with a pet is not doing their homework before getting the animal.Buying any pet, particularly a small one with such unique needs and traits as a hamster, should not be something done on impulse.This brief but information-packed book covers all of the bases, hopefully improving the odds that any potential hamster-owner will know what they're doing and won't contribute to the animal's early death.

Topics covered include scientific information about the hamster in general and specific domesticated breeds in particular, diet (it was news to me that hamsters are omnivores and not herbivores!), children and hamsters, finding a lost hamster, breeding, housing, toys, training, when to see a vet, grooming, common types of illness and injury, and handling.There are also adorable pictures of the little guys on nearly every page; like many people, my only experience with the animal had been the Syrian hamster, and hadn't known they come in nearly so many different colors and markings.The back of the book provides a list of resources, such as various hamster societies, rescue groups, and emergency services.Though a serious downside to the pet is that they only live between a year and a half to three years, otherwise they're really described as an ideal low-maintenance pet.The biggest chore associated with their care is regularly cleaning the cage and bedding; they ordinarily don't even need to see a vet, get vaccinated, have their coats brushed or trimmed, have their nails clipped, or even get bathed.Their short lifespan could even be seen as a positive, since they're not as long-lived as other pets such as rabbits, dogs, cats, ferrets, or salamanders, whom children often get bored of and dump on their parents, or who end up being cared for by the parents when their owner goes away to college.Overall, this book paints a picture of a fascinating little rodent, whom I wasn't old or mature enough to fully understand or appreciate when I originally had one in my care. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars It's everything a kid could want besides a pet!
This is a wonderful book for younger children!(Older people can read it as well,but is geared toward young readers.)She presents each pocket pet well,by saying pluses and dowsides of having each.I know each pet well and obviously she does too!(I did find one slight problem in the gerbil section:this book was written a while back when gerbils only came in 1 color,brown,so of course she says they come in just that color.But gerbils these days gerbils come in tons of colors!)It includes cute pictures too!I would recommend it to anyone who has or is a small child:) ...
