This controlled-vocabulary chapter book is written for developing readers in grades 3 and beyond. Sam, a 10-year-old with physical mobility problems, wants to do something impossible. Clinging to his dream, he learns about friendship, trust, courage, and the power of imagination. The vocabulary beyond one or two syllables emphasizes consonant-l-e words with suffixes and words ending in -ment.
