The second in the âJeremyâ series, âJeremy and Hamletâ switches between two perspectives: those of our 10-year-old hero and those of his dog, Hamlet. With Jeremy away at school, Hamlet must get through each day without his human best friend. Similarly, Jeremy is pitted against the problems that only school can throw at you. A funny and fascinating read, âJeremy and Hamletâ is an ideal read for Walpole fans of all ages.
