Written by Caroline Rush. Illustrated by Peter Rush; Caroline Rush.
Stock no. 1817581
Published by Rupert Hart-Davis. 1st 1967. Very good condition in a almost very good dustwrapper.

The redoubtable Mr Pengachoosa finds himself in fanciful situations quite unsuited to hamsters in general, but than, of course, he isn't a 'general' sort of hamster at all... Each story is founded in the real world of a girl and her pet hamster and each returns to it after considerable flights of fancy... Pink boards, gilt title to spine and vignette of hamster to front board. B/w illustrations. A little loss to margin of gutter edge of front endpaper. Small name in ink to front pastedown hidden by the front flap of dustwrapper. Contents clean. Price-cut pictorial dustwrapper is edge-worn with a few closed tears and yellowing tape to verso at edges.
