When Grandpa's neighbour goes on holidays and asks him to take care of her pet hamster, Lucky, Bonga Bonga is beyond excited when Grandpa asks for her help. Drawing on his childhood experiences with guinea pigs and rabbits, and the neighbour's written instructions, Grandpa teaches his granddaughter how to feed, water, exercise and attend to all of the needs of this small animal.

Bonga Bonga and Grandpa: Lucky the Hamster is the second book in the Through the Years with Bonga Bonga series.

Educational and entertaining, Lucky the Hamster will teach young readers about family, responsibility, and the natural world. This series of true stories was inspired by the love of a grandfather for his first grandchild, affectionately known as Bonga Bonga. Brightly illustrated and simply told by Bonga Bonga as she heard the tales from her grandfather. These delightful tales will make excellent additions to personal and school libraries alike.
