Reflections of a Solitary Hamster cover

An endearing book all about friendship. Give and take, laugh and reflect along with Hamster and his ever-patient friendsa The friendship between a group of forest animals is brought to life in this enchanting book of comic-strips. Hamster is the selfish and narcissistic main character surrounded by affectionate friends who love him, warts and all. We all have friends or family members like this, who we love in spite of their annoying characteristics. Philosophical, ironic and terribly funny, The Reflections of a Solitary Hamster will appeal to thoughtful readers - young and old.

"Reading like the offspring of a marriage between Snoopy and Little Grey Rabbit, this is an endearing, often funny, always thought-provoking book to share with all ages from 5 or 6 up." -- Magpies (AU)
