Seventeen years in the making, this novel is intended for all ages.
It is about two hamsters trapped in their plastic prison known as a
chummery, Oliver Fluff and his comrade, Smudge McDuff, far from
content at their fate long to escape their mundane and monotonous
existence so common to pet hamsters everywhere, in search of
freedom in the outside world. They escape into an unexpected
underworld of terror, horrible evil and nasty villains, but in the
process discover the value of friendship, the commitments and
sacrifices required, as well as the ultimate satisfaction in
achieving their motivating dream.
Set over a 24-hour period, meet tiger sharks, lemon sharks, and
basking sharks in this kids' non-fiction book about the coolest
predators in the ocean. Dive under the sea to follow the lives of
individual sharks as they hunt, hide, and play their way through
their day. Shark conservationist Carlee Jackson cleverly weaves the
story from whale shakes to epaulette sharks (who hunt in rock
pools!) in the style of a nature documentary, including science
explanations perfect for future marine biologists. The book
encourages kids to look at sharks in a new light - not just
fearsome predators but endangered animals who play a key role in
the ocean's ecosystem.
