"Hey Everybody! My name is Chewy and I just arrived at the library. I'm hoping to make a lot of friends and hope that you will all come visit me soon. I'm having a great time playing in my new tunnels and new little house. And I get to chew and tear apart my own tubes! Wow, what fun! Come See Me!"

FAQS

Q: Chewy, what are you?

A: I am a gerbil. My average size is 4 to 5 inches (boy, I'm small). I am curious about everyone who comes into my Children's Room. I love to burrow, gnaw and play in tubes and in my little house.

Q: Where do you live?

A: I live in a glass cage where I have my water bottle and food always on hand. I'm so lucky! I even have a house inside my cage that I can sleep in (and I do...a lot!).

Q: What's your favorite thing to do?

A: I LOVE taking sand or dust baths. Doesn't everyone?

Q: What do you do for exercise and fun?

A: I enjoy exploring the Children's Room in my purple plastic ball. No throwing me!

Chewy Recommends

"These are just some of my favorite books that the library has. If you click on a picture of the book you'd like, you'll be able to see if it's checked in or not. If you would like to read any of them, ask Miss Vicki or Miss Pam to help you find them or put them on hold. I know you'll enjoy them as much as I do."
