Despite his initial hesitation to invite the new kid, Sam, to his
sleepover birthday party, Max quickly discovers that what makes us
different makes us special, and new friends can come in all shapes,
sizes, and species . . . Perfect as a birthday gift, and for fans of
Vampirina Ballerina and Crankenstein.
There's something strange about the new kid, Sam--though Max can't quite
put his finger on it. But EVERYONE else in his class is invited to Max's
birthday sleepover, so his mom invites Sam too.
Sam is just as strange at the party as he is at school: he's wary of the
full moon, prefers his hamburgers rare, and can't help but bite the
other kids during an innocent game of Twister. But despite his initial
hesitation, Max discovers that what makes us different is actually what
makes us special, and that new friends can come in all shapes, sizes,
and species . . .
This charming and pitch-perfect story will teach young readers all about
the excitement of making new friends, and learning from our differences.
