Book Reviews of I, Houdini

Book Review: Amazing Animal-Narration for Kids of All Ages
Summary: 5 Stars

Houdini is a golden hamster with a very unusual name. You see, who was named after "the" Houdini. You know, the magician. As Houdini the Hamster is also an amazing escape artist, just like his namesake. Houdini was born with amazing talents for escaping anything imaginable. No matter how confining it appeared to be. Houdini can wiggle, chew, and squeeze himself out of any place. Pants pockets, pianos, refrigerators. You name it, and he'll be able to escape from it. In fact, thanks to Houdini's many escapades in escaping, he has created many disasters throughout his owner's home. Floods, chewed carpets and telephone wires, etc. But this time, Houdini is set on escaping to the biggest place ever. The great outdoors. And knowing him, he'll be able to accomplish this amazing feat.

I, HOUDINI is an exciting animal-narrated story filled with mystery, adventure, and lots of destruction. Lynne Reid Banks created an amazing work of children's literature when writing I, HOUDINI, as she put herself in the place of a hamster, and described all of the surroundings she experienced, and the things that she saw. Houdini is an enjoyable character, who's witty personality, and snappy commentary with have all readers, young and old laughing out loud at his crazy antics. A must have book for all. Especially for those who enjoyed E.B. White's STUART LITTLE and Beverly Cleary's THE MOUSE AND THE MOTORCYCLE. A must have.
