Book Description
for Sam by Ann Herbert Scott and Symeon Shimin
From the Publisher
Sam wants to play, but no one in his family wants him around, not his mother, not his brother, not even his sister. Finally, when his father turns him away, Sam begins to cry, and only then does his family realize that Sam needs his own special job. The emotionally evocative illustrations beautifully balance this tale of a universal childhood experience.--The Horn Book. ALA Notable Children's Book. Full color.
