PICTURE BOOKS
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jackie Urbanovic. Harriet the hamster, thinking a makeover is key to getting herself out of the pet store, reinvents herself with a flashy new hat and whisker extensions. The transformation is ridiculous, and her sensible sister convinces Harriet to just be herself. The story's moral, though unoriginal, is easy to take as delivered by funny, cuddly, fashion-conscious hamsters.
