Sam Krupnik
is growing up fast and experiencing life—from the miracles of rolling, to
hiding his broccoli, to his first pet and beyond. Go along on Sam’s adventures
for his first few years and laugh out loud at the way Sam—and most kids—see the
world.
This is a simple novel aimed at an elementary audience. Sam’s voice is
wonderful and believable and readers of all ages will appreciate his new
discoveries and adventures. I first read
this as an elementary student, and reading this new edition years later was just
as fun.
