From the publisher
Sam is only friends with boys. Boys are strong and tough–girls aren’t. But when Ellie joins Sam’s class and he’s forced to get to know her, he finds out that her parents may be getting a divorce. Then Sam sees just how strong and tough a girl can be, and he makes his first real friend.Readers will relate to Sam’s feelings–and his change of heart–and the bold colors, engaging animal characters, and gentle humor are perfectly suited to the preschool audience.
