You are about to enter the deep woods where Sammy the skunk becomes a hero to the animals that live there. Although Sammy does not live in the deep woods, he enters it quite by accident and his adventures begin immediately.

Sammy finds out that Mr. Fox needs a friend, Mrs. Porcupine is losing her quills, and Mr. Beaver has lost his teeth. Also, a little rabbit breaks his leg, there is a fire in the deep woods, and the bears appear! What can Sammy do? These are only seven of the twelve situations where Sammy helps his friends.

Life lessons are written for each of the twelve stories. They include a question for children to think about, a scripture verse, a truth about God, and a short message about the love God has for each of His children.

Author:

Adele A. Roberts has a B.A. in education, M.A. in counseling and a CDA in early childhood development. She created the character of Sammy over forty years ago, and began telling her make-believe stories to her students. She started writing the first story of Sammy when a young student asked if there was a book about the little skunk. Although it wasn’t a priority of hers at the time to write stories, she finished part of the first story and set it aside. Years later she found the old cardboard box containing the aged, colored papers of her first story. It was at this time she realized she needed to complete the task she had begun so many years before.
