No Sam! and the Meow of Deception

By Drew Daywalt & Mike Lowery
No Sam! and the Meow of Deception by Drew Daywalt & Mike Lowery digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The follow-up to the instant New York Times bestseller and Indie Next pick by author Drew Daywalt (The Day the Crayons Quit) and illustrator Mike Lowery continues the hilarious adventures of Sam the pug as he protects his family from suburban evil.

Sam the pug, the Peterson family’s self-proclaimed “Human Being” and “chief security officer,” faces his biggest challenge yet: his sidekick Meow can talk (thanks to Sam’s “language lessons”), but now a mysterious mad bomber is after him. As Sam works to protect Meow, he must also uncover the truth about Justin’s new friend Dean—who might just be a vampire—and save the neighborhood from a host of villains, including goblins, robots, and a chainsaw-wielding maniac (or so Sam thinks).

Packed with over-the-top humor, wacky illustrations, and Sam’s own drawings and lists, this is a must-read for kids 7-10, reluctant readers, and anyone who loves a good dose of chaos and canine charm!

No Sam! and the Meow of Deception Reviews

3.0
“Thank you Netgalley, Harper audio Children's, and Storytide for the ALC copy in exchange for my honest review. I was unaware that this was a sequel to 2024's "They Call Me No Sam!" by author Drew Daywal. Though, as I am always looking for fun stories for my kids, I signed up for the ARC/ALC. We made a trip to our local library and picked up book one and spent the weekend reading these stories aloud with our third grader, who had an absolute blast! Book 2, No Sam! and the Meow of Deception is narrated by Ron Butler who does an amazing job of keeping the kids attention with voices, noises, and all kinds of fun. The writing of these stories keeps the parents interested with little jokes that fly just over the children's heads. Reminds me of the kind of humor from Rugrats and such. I particularly laughed at all of the issues with Doug and the use of classic techniques to vanquish their fiend. Truly a great story and looking forward to the continued adventures.”
