The Ferret’s A Foot

Sasspants is worried.  Mr. Venezi, the pet shop owner, has put up a “help wanted” sign in his window!  What if this means he sells more pets and Sasspants’ friends have to leave their homes?!?  Sasspants sets out to convince Mr. Venezi that he doesn’t need more help after all, but when her efforts are sabotaged, Sasspants must find the culprit!  This charming graphic novel for kids takes a common theme in children’s literature (leaving home) and uses it as the basis for a mystery.  Sasspants is aided (or maybe hampered) by Hamisher the hamster, a goofy sidekick for the ages.  The story is told on square, approachable pages and in bright, friendly colors.  Although this is the third the Guinea PIG series, the reader can enjoy the story with no knowledge of Sasspants’ other adventures.
