Sam is a mischievous little boy, but mostly curious. He is very smart, and from the day he was born, Anastasia was jealous.
Reason for writing the novel
On her website Lowry states the reason for writing the novel as:
- "Sam was born when Anastasia was ten, and for a long time he existed only in the books about her. But kids liked him. Maybe he reminded them of their own little brothers. So at the request of young readers, I gave Sam his own series."
