by Lois Lowry (Author)

Sam Krupnik, mad at his mother because she won't let him wear his newly acquired plastic fangs in the house, decides to run away to Alaska. There, he can look like the walruses with their tusks--at least they would let him wear his fangs. But as Sam says goodbye to his neighbors, he receives more advice and survival tools than he knows what to do with. Will Sam have to change his mind about Alaska?


  • Funny Kids Book: Armed with plastic fangs and a plan to live with walruses, four-year-old Sam Krupnik is the most determined runaway on the block.
  • A Heartwarming Neighborhood Story: From a mailman who builds art from pasta to an elderly neighbor with some very bad eyesight, Sam's goodbyes don't go exactly as planned.
  • Dealing with Big Feelings: A funny and gentle story about what happens when you get mad at your mom, and how it's always okay to change your mind.
  • An Early Reader Series Favorite: Join the beloved Sam Krupnik in this classic, funny chapter book from Newbery Medal winner Lois Lowry.
