Readers will be delighted by colorful illustrations as they immerse themselves in Sam's story and try to make the right decisions. Sam finds himself in several situations that make him sad: his hamster dies, his best friend moves away, and his parents pay more attention to his little sister than to him. There are three ways Sam can act in every situation. The reader can compare Sam's choices to the ones he or she would have made and gain a deeper understanding of the central lesson.
