First in a hilarious six-book series about a highly unusual pet hamster. Nine-year-old Ben Jinks wants a pet, but a talking hamster wasn't on his wish list. When his mum says he has to prove he's responsible in order to get his TV back, he resolves to make the best of it. What he wasn't expecting was a grumpy talking hamster who can do his maths homework! Ben's marks shoot up, but his teacher - the nasty Beardy McCreedy - is suspicious, and bets Ben's dad that Ben can't pass a maths test without cheating. Ben is sure he is doomed, but with Stinky's help - and some disgusting maths props - maybe he can prove his nasty teacher wrong . . . Illustrated throughout with black and white artwork by The Boy Fitz Hammond.

Titles in the Pets' Guides series teach young readers how to care responsibly for their chosen pet. However, in a unique spin, each book is written from the point of view of one of the animals themselves, thus also allowing the books to be used to teach perspective. In this book, Nibble the Hamster reveals how readers should go about choosing a pet hamster, what supplies they will need, how to make a new hamster feel at home, and how to properly care for a pet hamster, including feeding, exercising, and keeping a hamster cage clean. Text in the book is accompanied by clear, labelled photographs to further reinforce key concepts.
