(4) K-3 Kids Can Read series. Illustrated by Marisol Sarrazin. In Friend, Sam, a lonely puppy, befriends a boy who gives her ice cream; in Halloween, she longs for the candy dispensed to the trick-or-treaters at her door. Some of Sam's expressions are excessively cute, and Friend's story line is predictable and lacks the humor of Halloween, at the end of which clever Sam finally earns a treat by creating and donning a costume. [Review covers these Kids Can Read titles: A Friend for Sam and Sam's First Halloween.]
