#BookReview: Hamstersaurus Rex vs. Squirrel Kong by @tomisokay Tim Miller

  SQUIRREL ATTACK! Sam Gibbs and his super-strong tiny buddy, Hamstersaurus Rex, are back in this hilarious classroom comedy, perfect for fans of Dog Man and Stick Dog—and for anybody who might be entertained by a mutant rodent showdown.

Sam and Hammie Rex discover a terrifying giant squirrel hiding in the woods behind Horace Hotwater Middle School. But nobody else believes Squirrel Kong is real.

Then Hammie Rex takes the blame for Squirrel Kong’s destructive rampages, and the principal threatens to send him away to home for dangerous, troubled small pets. To save his hamster friend, can Sam prove that Squirrel Kong is the true menace?

Expect mysterious mutations, deliciously gross snack foods, and an epic battle with the world’s most fearsome squirrel in this outrageously funny second installment in the Hamstersaurus Rex series.

Sorry for no video guys.  We needed to get this done and Awesome Annie is still recovering from her stomach bug.

Well this one was just as good if not better than the others.  These stories are some of the best children's books we have read together and I am so over joyed that she loves them. With a great story to get kids reading esp. boys this book should be one to read now.  You won't believe what is going on with our favorite friends Sam and Hammie!  With cute artwork throughout the book in the margins this one is one not to miss! I can't wait for the next one.
