See You Around, Sam!

See You Around, Sam (1996) is a children's novel written by Lois Lowry and illustrated by Diane de Groat.

It is part of a series of books that Lowry wrote about Anastasia and her younger brother, Sam.

Sam Krupnik is excited to have a new pair of plastic fangs, but his "fangphobic" mother won't allow him to wear them in the house.

By the end of the day, though, Sam realizes he doesn't know the way to Alaska, and decides to return home.

Kirkus Reviews described the book as a "delight", praising Lowry's "powerfully sympathetic writing" and de Groat's illustrations.
