Sam: The Boy Behind the Mask
by: Tom Hallman, Jr.
Synopsis: This is a book about a boy named Sam Lightner. He was born with a very rare disfigured growth on the left side of his face. This growth has determined everything about his life. It affects him and how people see him. This book is meant to show the real Sam to the world. The book is about Sam's life and all the struggles he has had to endure.
Review: This book is really good! It's pretty old, it's from 2002, but I just found it in my basement and decided to finally read it, and I'm so glad I did! To be honest I didn't know weather this book was fiction or nonfiction until halfway through and there was real pictures of Sam. It was very cool to read about Sam and it was interesting to read about all of his medical procedures and issues. This book is kind of funny, but more so sad. This book is very well written and it also has a great lesson, which is to never judge someone based on their looks.
