    About this ebook

    Raffleton Grey is as BORED as a hamster can be. He wants to go to the fair – but he's STUCK in his cage.

    There's only one thing for it . . .
    Get ready for the most exciting HAMSTER GETAWAY in history!

    Freedom means new friendships and tasty ice cream and fairground rides. But as night falls, things begin to get a bit scary. Perhaps home isn't so bad after all – especially if you have a new friend by your side . . .

    This hilarious rhyming adventure is perfect for reading (and laughing!) out loud – a fun-packed summertime getaway that's irresistible to readers both big and small!
