OverviewSamantha's parents warn her not to hit her brother. But Samantha likes to hit him, and does not think she will be sorry. She's wrong, of course. As the consequences of Samantha's actions grow more and more outlandish with every turn of the page, surreal twists and subtle visual humor add to the fun. Siblings of all ages are sure to recognize the contentious yet ultimately loving relationship in this lighthearted cautionary tale about a common childhood impulse. Drawing inspiration from greats like Arnold Lobel and Charles Schultz, a talented young picture book creator makes his debut in a remarkably fresh and pleasing way.
