Samuel Small is a black spaniel with many human friends and one enemy--teen age Sandra. The younger Carter children adore him, but Sandra who is at ""that"" age considers him dull, undistinguished, and occasionally, a mortal enemy. But Sandra's opinions change when she recovers her old beau, abandons her less appealing suitor, and realizes that Samuel Small is a creature of heroic proportions. Written by the author of Benjamin Big, this story not only captures the winning nature of dogdom, but portrays the whole Carter family with conviction and charm.
