**A Stegosaurus Named Sam
Kevin E. Adams / Kevin E. Adams and FIC.340 ADA
It's hard to be a young dinosaur and look different from the rest of your friends and family. Sam the Stegosaurus
has to learn that sometimes looking different is a good thing, and that everyone has his or her job and place in the
world. Sam the Stegosaurus's life, way back in the Jurassic period, was normal and happy, playing dinosaur
games like Hide and Seek, Kick the Rock and Chase the Tail with his friends. Then he had to grow up (although
he fought against it for as long as possible), and suddenly everything was different, because growing up, for him,
also meant growing some really weird-looking bumps and lumps. The other Stegosauruses also had lumps and
bumps, but none as large or as strange as Sam's. They started to tease Sam and make fun of him. He couldn't
play with them anymore. At least he had Willard, his Apatosaurus friend. One day Sam went crying to his mom,
saying he couldn't understand why he was so different. She told him, 'Sometimes it's hard to be different, but
someday that difference could change everything.' How true that would turn out to be! Months went by and Sam's
lumps and bumps turned into large, thick plates on his back, and huge, fierce spikes on his tail. He was very big
and very scary-looking, and the other Stegosauruses ignored him. If it hadn't been for Willard, Sam would have
been very lonely indeed. Then, one day, an enormous, hungry Allosaurus came to attack the Stegosauruses &
The whole herd was in danger, all huddled together, trying to protect themselves. Could anybody save them, or
would the Stegosauruses become just another part of pre-history?
