鈥淓vil hamsters! Anxiety! Blarfing! This book has everything, including dynamite doodles that bring the story to life. A madcap page-turning adventure like no other!鈥�
- Arthur Slade, author of the Dragon Assassin series
鈥淲hile the light tone breezily matches the absurd premise that hamsters en masse might gather forces and take over a school, Hallett is also careful to frame anxiety, loneliness, and fear as sympathetic, relatable emotions rather than part of the jokes 鈥� there鈥檚 a lot here to enjoy.鈥�
