Book Overview

It's Future Job Day at Sam's school, and Sam knows exactly what he wants to be when he grows up-a zookeeper, just like Zookeeper Jake in his favorite picture book. His mother and big sister, Anastasia, help Sam create a memorable costume-so memorable that Sam insists on wearing it long after Future Job Day has passed and the rest of his classmates are back in their regular clothes. Encouraged by Mrs. Bennett, his teacher, Sam embarks on a lengthy...

Summary and Rating

Section 1- Summary In my book "Zooman Sam" Sam as the main character is at Krupnik's nursery school. The kids were told to dress up as what they want to be for their job. All the other boys in his class want to be a fireman in his class. Sam doesn't want to be a fireman. Instead he wants to be somebody important. With the help of his mom and sister (Anastasia) Sam dresses up in a zookeeper's costume. Who would have thought? Maybe the title foreshadowed a lot! Sam's teacher let Sam to tell his class a little something different like an animal everyday. He likes the fun activity that he finds both really fun and challenging! The book was great!Section 2 - Rate the Book I rate this book Four Stars (excellent) I think this book was excellent because it shows what I can't remember what it was like in pre-school! But it was fiction since he isn't "Vibrant" like usual. I recommend this book to kids ages 7-12 that like some fun with a (almost real) pre-school's day.

Great Book!

This was a hillarious comedy of a 4 year olds life. It starts out when his pre-school teacher announces that they will be having a future job day in the upcoming week. Sam decides that he will be a Zoo Keeper like Jake in his Zoo book. His mom makes him a Zoo keeper outfit that says Zooman Sam right on top. His sister Anastasia borrowed some baseball caps of animals from her un-boyfriend. His teacher and he decide that he will wear one cap every day. But when he used every cap in his bag except for the scary ones what will he do?!? Can Sam be a Zoo man forever!?!

Zooman Sam Book Review

Have you ever wondered what you wanted to be when you grow up? Well Sam already has to figure out what he is going to be when he grows up. Sam Krupnik is a preschooler who wants to be something other than a fireman. All the other boys are going to be firemen when they grow up. Sam talks about all kinds of animals while he is wearing different animal hats. After school each day he has to train his dog named Sleuth. That is why Zooman Sam is such a GREAT book. Can he keep talking about a different animal each day? Can he train his dog? You'll have to read Zooman Sam by Lois Lowry to find out.

A nice Krupnik reunion - but more Anastasia, please!

Okay, I'll admit that I'm 23 years old. I grew up reading the Anastasia books, and since then I read anything new that Lois Lowry writes. I did enjoy this book very much - it's funny and touching, and Sam is a great character. I would enjoy reading future books about Sam. But I would enjoy reading a brand-new Anastasia book even more. Or, if the new Krupnik-family books will be focused on Sam, please add more "Anastasia!"
