About this product

Product Information

Sam the Owl and Gus the Firefly literally light up the sky in this classic Beginner Book edited by Dr. Seuss. In Sam and the Firefly, P. D. Eastman (author of Are You My Mother? and Go, Dog. Go ) introduces us to the dynamic duo of Sam and Gus, who soar through the air writing words in the night sky. But when Gus's words end up causing confusion and chaos for the people on the ground, it's up to Sam to help Gus "write" his wrongs. Originally created by Dr. Seuss, Beginner Books encourage children to read all by themselves, with simple words and illustrations that give clues to their meaning. "...provides interest, suspense and word repetition. Illustrations excellent. Recommended."--(starred) School Library Journal.

  • Wonderful story that helps beginning readers!

    This is an old children’s book read to me 60+ years ago! I’ve always loved it. My last little grandson is starting to read and he loves it when we read this book together! Getting it used in great condition was a good deal.

  • Sam and the Firefly

    Sam and the Firefly is a cute story that is easy to read. Sam and the Firefly is essentially about the antics and adventures of an owl and a firefly who became friends and spent their nights together when all the other animals were asleep. I bought a copy of this book because I read it in the past and re-reading the story would be a pleasant way to reminisce. Sam and the Firefly is a children's story, but I read the book to an elderly family member in a nursing home. They enjoyed the story and we both had a good laugh together. I recommend this book to anyone who would enjoy an easy reading funny story.

  • Childhood Favorite

    I gave three of my childhood favorites to a friend at a baby shower, and thus was one of them. The others were Blueberries for Sal and Go Dog Go.
