Hamsters on the Go

by Kass Reich

Hamsters have many places to go and lots of ways to get there! Following the success of her previous board books on numbers, colors and opposites, Kass Reich once again presents her beloved, splayed-toed hamsters. This time, the adorable critters are on the move, demonstrating all the different ways they get from here to there. A lively and humorous introduction to modes of transportation for little ones.

I enjoyed this cute and funny book about hamsters! It is written as a poem. I especially liked the nonsensical illustrations, like the fishing pole sticking to the hamster's palm without a grip!

Hamsters on the Go is a great board for babies 0-6 months old. It is a story about the many ways that hamsters travel to get where they are going. The author makes use of rhyming, which creates a fun cadence when the book is read aloud. Opposites are also incorporated in this book. The pages are made from thick cardboard material that will stand up to chewing, throwing, and playing. This book has very limited text, but each page is very visually stimulating which is important for this 0-6 months age group. This book would also be enjoyable for older babies 12-18 months as they begin to learn and understand the different methods of transportation and opposites.

Board Book ages 0-2

This book is a classic rhyming board book about the many ways that hamsters can travel - car, hot air balloon, float, submarine. It's really cute and simple, but kids will love the pictures and the rhymes and probably ask for this book over and over again.

Really cute illustrations and simple text make this a good story for kindergarten. Can be used to talk about transportation, but we had more fun trying to guess where the hamsters were going to go.

Funny, but not substantive...I'm getting pickier!

In this especially detailed little travelogue, Kass Reich's sweet set of cartoon hamsters do various activities by various means!

It rhymes, it's easy to read, and my kid, who loves trucks and planes and cars and trains, is interested on every page

I thought this book was cute for a Board Book with it's focus on transportation modes and the visual list at the end.
