Book Reviews of A Home for Hamtaro and Other Stories (The Adventures of Hamtaro, Vol. 1)
Book Review: Great for a Hamtaro fans and Postcard Enthusiasts alike
Summary: 5 Stars
I send postcards all over the world, so I like having a variety of cards to send people. I'm especially happy when I can find comic and cartoon postcards as they're popular with people of all ages but can be difficult to find. I was happy to find so many postcards in one book at a more-than-reasonable price.
The images on these postcards come from Ritsuko Kawai's (the creator of Hamtaro) original illustrations. They are very cute, brightly coloured, and you can really see the detail in the drawings. They depict the characters in all sorts of costumes and situations, as well as just lounging around. The postcards themselves are on good quality cardstock and have a nice layout on the back as well as the front.
Be warned, the postcards are oversized, meaning they will need the same postage as a first-class letter instead of the lower postcard rate. But... they're so cute, you'll probably want to keep them for yourself. :)
Summary of A Home for Hamtaro and Other Stories (The Adventures of Hamtaro, Vol. 1)
"Little hamsters ? big adventures!" is the tagline for Japan?s most popular children?s series. The little hamsters are Hamtaro and his pals, the Ham-Ham Gang; and in this first of a four-book series, the full color adventures take the gang and their "adopted" owner Laura in and out of all kinds of scrapes. Hamtaro is all too happy to help Laura and her family solve their problems but sometimes gets off track when it comes to problems of his own!General Books
