Sam and Charlie and best friends and neighbors. Charlie’s little sister happens to have the same name as Sam. So she is referred to as “Charlie, too” Probably because she tags along, even when not invited. This beginning to read chapter book is broken up into stories, instead of chapters. Each on a different topic. Although, a theme of Jewish holidays and culture ran throughout the book. Shiny, thick pages and solid construction of this book are a winning combination with the great pictures by William Owl. Great addition to a library.
