It's a cute series about a loyal hamster who takes friendship very seriously. Lessons abound in each book.
There is a diverse cast of characters spanning a wide range of ethnic groups, socio-economic classes, and even physical health.
Happily - since I was reading the series to a first grader - there is really nothing objectionable in the series; it's a "safe" series that makes clear what is considered appropriate behavior. Except maybe the second book... It's a good installment because it's the one where we meet Og the frog, but some of the content might be just a wee bit more appropriate for older elementary grades.
