Andy and Pancake

Andy and Pancake (The Adventures of Andy and Pancake)Six year old Andy has waited a long time for his own pet. The family has a cat and dog, and his mom isn't sure they can manage any more, except maybe fish. Andy's twin brothers John, Jason, and their dad go with Andy to the pet store to find a pet for Andy. While there, a little hamster literally finds them, and becomes Andy's new pet. But the hamster is an escape artist. Young readers will learn about friendship and pet care in this gentle story--as well as how the hamster gets his unique name, Pancake. Written by Judy Huebscher, with illustrations by Michaelin Otis, this is a good story for beginning readers.
