Happy Birthday, Hamster

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Derek Anderson. "Best day, bake day, candles on a cake day!" A chipper text, along with dialogue balloons, tells of Hamster's surprise birthday party. While Hamster accompanies his bulldog best friend on mundane errands, preparations for the party are ongoing. The festive, cartoony acrylic illustrations are thoughtfully composed.
