Hamilton the Hamster
Once upon a time there was a very clever
little hamster named Hamilton. He lived in
a butcher shop owned by Mr. Roberts, but
Mr. Roberts didn't pay much attention to
Hamilton.
Each day, when Hamilton heard the bells jingle on the shop door, he
knew a customer would walk in and look at the meats. Hamilton would
scramble up on top of the wooden
crates in the shop and yell "Hey
Mister! I'd make a great pet! Will
you take me home? Look, I can do
tricks!" Then he would jump high
into the air and do a fantastic
backwards somersault.

Unfortunately though, no matter what Hamilton did, the customers
didn't notice him, and to a human, Hamilton's yelling just sounded like
hamster squeaks!
The man, who had now come into the shop, saw something moving over
to the side of the shop, and when he looked more closely he was amazed
to see a little hamster holding a sign.
The man knew that most hamsters can't read or write, and so he
thought it must be some kind of trick. So he asked Mr. Roberts,
"are you trying to get rid of your pet hamster?"

"Nah, the little guy just hangs out here, he's no bother," said Mr.
Roberts. Hamilton knew this was his chance to become someone's
pet, and so he grabbed the purple
pen once more and turned the
poster paper over to write another
message. Just then the pen began
to leak and he got purple ink all
over his paws and fur.
The man quickly realised that this hamster could actually read and
write, which gave him an idea. "This little guy would make a great pet!
The kids would love him! Can I take him home Mr. Roberts?"
