The Nature Kid's Guide to Hamsters: A Level 2 Reader for Curious Young Kids Who Love Hamsters!

Stuff! A tiny animal packs so many seeds into its cheeks they stretch all the way back to its shoulders. It's a hamster, and those pouches can hold half its entire body weight. If your child thinks hamsters are just fluffy cage animals, this book is about to change everything. A wild hamster runs up to eight miles every single night to find food. One hamster was found with 60 pounds of food stored in its burrow. Winter white hamsters turn completely white in winter to vanish into snow. Every pet Syrian hamster alive today is descended from a single family dug out of a burrow in Syria in 1930. The European hamster can grow as long as a ruler and is now one of the most endangered animals in Europe. Every page delivers something your child will want to run and share. "The Nature Kid's Guide to Hamsters" is written for curious kids ages 7-12 who want to know the real story behind one of the world's most popular pets. How does an animal smaller than your hand run the equivalent of 140 football fields in a single night? Why do Syrian hamsters fight so fiercely that brothers and sisters must be separated the moment they grow up? What connects every pet hamster on Earth back to one burrow in the Syrian desert? Your child will find out, and they will never look at a hamster cage the same way again. Short sentences and surprising facts build reading confidence while keeping even older kids hooked from first page to last. Chapters cover more than a dozen hamster species from tiny Roborovski racers and color-changing winter whites to the giant wild European hamster most kids have never heard of. A book for every kid who has a hamster on their dresser and had no idea it was secretly a tiny wild explorer. There are over 20 species of wild hamsters out there right now, digging burrows, hoarding food, and running miles through the dark. Most of them nobody ever talks about. That is the kind of wonder that sticks. Thousands of young readers have explored the Nature Kids Guide series. Your child is next!
