Tony Baloney is very excited about “Pen Pal Month” at school. He is hoping to make a new friend for life. When his first letter arrives, he realizes that his new friend Sam is just perfect! They like the same jokes, the same sports and the same types of stories. Tony and Sam get to meet face-to-face at a pizza party at the end of the month but when they meet, Sam is very different from what Tony expected. Will Sam really be a friend for life like Tony had hoped? (Garden State Children's Book Awards, 2018)
