Where will our tortured star go? To the circus, of course! The spotlight of center ring beckons him -- the elephants, monkeys, and tigers in desperate need of a leader. Hamweenie will gift them with his presence! So why is it that his greatness goes unappreciated? Does no one recognize a true star when they see one? In this companion to The Amazing Hamweenie, Patty Bowman brings a touch of Edward Gorey, a dash of Stewie Griffin, a pinch of Grumpy Cat, and even a shake of Maru to the secret mind of one adorable pet cat. Praise for The Amazing Hamweenie Escapes "This is a follow-up to The Amazing Hamweenie, and Bowman again captures perfectly the superior attitude and maddening actions displayed by so many cats. Children will chuckle at the disconnect between Hamweenie&’s words and the action depicted in the illustrations, which suggest a lighter, more colorful version of Edward Gorey&’s finely detailed drawings. For fans of Hamweenie&’s first adventure, and perfect for children who appreciate Garfield the cat." —School Library Journal
