From School Library Journal:
PreS True to the other titles in this series, Benjamin, a rather plump and engaging hamster character, is determined to carry on despite mishaps. After Benjamin visits an animal portrait gallery, he decides that portrait painting looks easy to do. While attempting a self portrait, Benjamin discovers what can go wrongtubes of paint gush, powder paints spray onto him as he sneezes. Cleaning up proves to be even more disastrous as Benjamin tips the water glass, drenching himself completely. Undaunted, Benjamin dries himself, finishes the portrait, and moves on to try photography. Preschoolers will identify with Benjamin's eagerness to try things for himself, as well as his encounters with unexpected troubles. The simple text with its gentle humor is subtly reflected in color illustrations with pen and ink to provide texture and realism. A good choice for the preschool crowd.Susan Nemeth McCarthy, Arlington County Public Library, Va.
