Oh I don't want to give away too many spoilers for this book, it just MUST be read. It's a hilarious, romp of an adventure that will have you and your children in fits of giggles. Can the Rat Burglars rescue Hold-em’-Up Harry or will his time of luxury as Snuggle Puff Rainbow Muffin (love that name!) be all too tempting after he's sold to a little kid.

This is a brilliantly funny picture book that had us in hysterics!

Rita 'Roberella' Rat is the leader of the rat gang. Whilst waiting to steal some food outside the pet shop Harry 'Hold Em Up' Hamster gets caught by the petshop owner and sold to a little girl. Will the rat gang successfully be able to rescue Harry or will the little hamster change his ways and start to enjoy life as Snuggle Puff Muffin Rainbow? Read the story to find out!
I love picture books that make adults and children laugh at the same time. This is such a great story. The illustrations are fantastic. We loved the rodent line up at the start and the house with it's laser beams. Just brilliant! We have pre ordered this book so we can add it to our collection. Thank you to NetGalley and Simon and Schuster for this eARC.

I read this book with my four-year-old daughter and she LOVED it.

She was giggling away and we really had fun reading the story!

She is mad on hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs and chinchillas so the book was always going to be a hit with her

The illustrations were great and they really brought the story to life too.t was well written and well-paced and perfect for her to follow the story

It is 5 stars from us – very highly recommended!!

'Award-Winning Author Caryl Hart, the name behind 'Supermarket Zoo' & 'Whiffy Wilson' has released another great title!

'How To Track A Sabre-Toothed Tiger' is a wonderful adventure through the stone age! It is a truly great book that highlights the power of children's imagination, I personally LOVED how the author encourages children to seek certain prehistoric objects on different pages, it was a ingenious addition to an already great read!

This is the story of put em up Harry the hamster being grabbed and mistaken for a pet hamster.
Hold em up Harry is part of the Rat Burglars gang when going to do their next job, Harry gets grabbed and is taken home by a little girl who calls him Snuggle Puff.

The gang need to get him back so the rescue insues.
