The Hamster Handbook (Barron's Pet Handbooks)

This book will be of special value to parents of younger kids who are keeping hamsters, to older children who can read the book on their own, and to adults who keep hamsters as a hobby. The author explains everything hamster owners need to know about the animal's life cycle, traits, breeding, feeding, caging, treating health problems--and simply keeping hamsters happy with appropriate toys and exercise accessories.--From publisher description.
