Its a wonderful story and Sam is the perfect fit for it. as you go along Sams advetures he learns many lessons and can be quite foolish

For a nature loving person like me, this book has great imagination and creation. The reader can be in Sam Gribley's world when they read it. To me, it is truly amazing.

No offense, I hated it. It is not really my style, but the layout felt good. A great author!
