Change can make us feel scared and lost. That’s how the disgusted hamster feels about trying new food. This hamster only likes cheese, even though the hamster’s friends want to help them try all kinds of delicious food. Instead, the hamster’s friends have to get creative to help the hamster overcome their fear of foods that make them queasy and uneasy, though they’re not sure why…
Brought to you by Flossy and Jim, the Disgusted Hamster book stars the child as the main character. Featuring their name and a special message inside the book, the story is designed to help children handle the challenge of trying new foods. Along with bold, easy to read text and vibrant illustrations, the book encourages sensory development through eye-catching images that hold their attention. The hamster helps the child relate and understand their own struggles and how they can be overcome with a little help from their friends.
How to Personalise Your Disgusted Hamster Book
Personalise the book with any name up to 12 characters, and a personal message of two lines, up to 40 characters per line.

This is a 60th birthday gift to my big little brother, I’m big lil sis (the eldest of my three brothers)
This is a 60th birthday gift to my brother in another county to where I live, so not visually been able to see the item purchased due to covid travel restrictions.
It’s fair to say as an avid MC supporter he is really pleased with it so far.
The book arrived in good time well before the expected date & I believe well packaged.
All in all both my self & brother really pleased with gift/purchase.

Very dissatisfied with book I received
Very dissatisfied with book I received.
The photo copying of many of the pages was very bad and barely readable. The pictures were just black indistinguishable blobs.
This was a birthday present and I was so embarrased when I gave it to them as it was such poor quality and unreadable in parts.

A great gift for my Everton mad fiancé. He loved looking down memory lane via the newspaper cuttings and remembering being there. He also loved the personalisation it made it an even more special gift. Well worth the money and not overly expensive.

Late delivery
The book was bought as a Birthday Present with the scheduled delivery period covering the date although one day delay would have been acceptable. It actually took 8 days to arrive, 4 days later than expected.
The tracking only said it was despatched by Royal Mail 24 and gave no further information.
It was not specifically the responsibility of In The Book, however the use of Royal Mail is a negative.
