Sam Abernathy Books

An 11-year-old boy who spent three days trapped in a well tries to overcome his PTSD and claustrophobia so he can fulfill his dream of becoming a famous chef in this charming middle-grade debut by "New York Times"-bestselling YA author Smith.

A boy who spent three days trapped in a well tries to overcome his PTSD and claustrophobia so he can fulfill his dream of becoming a famous chef in Andrew Smith’s first middle grade novel. When he was four years old, Sam Abernathy was trapped at the bottom of a well for three days, where he was teased by a smart-aleck armadillo named Bartleby. Since then, his parents plan every move he makes. But Sam doesn’t like their plans. He doesn’t want to go to MIT. And he doesn’t want to skip two grades, being stuck in the eighth grade as an eleven-year-old with James Jenkins, the boy he’s sure pushed him into the well in the first place. He wants to be a chef. And he’s going to start by entering the first annual Blue Creek Days Colonel Jenkins Macaroni and Cheese Cook-Off. That is, if he can survive eighth grade, and figure out the size of the truth that has slipped Sam’s memory for seven years.

Smith Andrew: The Size of the Truth

The Size of the Truth

Twelve-year-old Sam Abernathy, nervous about leaving Texas soon for an Oregon boarding school, has one last adventure with friends when possible vampires move into the town's haunted house.

Sam Abernathy prepares to leave home for the first time in this charming follow-up to award-winning author Andrew Smith’s The Size of Truth. Vampires have just moved into the haunted house next door. All twelve-year-old Sam Abernathy wanted to do was make the most of his last few weeks in Blue Creek before he has to say goodbye. Goodbye to the well he fell in eight years ago; goodbye to cooking at Lily Putt’s snack bar; goodbye to his overdramatic best friend, Karim; goodbye to unsweetened iced tea at Colonel Jenkins’s Diner every Saturday with Bahar (who he does not have a crush on); goodbye to his old life. But the arrival of the Monster People throws a wrench into his plans. Things only get worse when the new family hires Bahar to babysit their child, Boris, who is almost certainly a cannibal. And then—scariest of all—they employ Sam’s catering services. He can’t possibly say no. If he doesn’t survive the summer, Sam might not have to say bye-bye to Blue Creek at all.

Bye-bye, Blue Creek

Duck loves his life scooting around as a Delivery Duck for Feather Force. Though he may get into a few flaps here and there, his deliveries are somehow always on time. But when he's tasked with delivering a very tall, very large and very special cake to a party all the way across town, Duck realises he'll need to trade his scooter in for something with a bit more power to get there by sunset. As he does his best not to panic, will Duck's positivity be enough to help him deliver on time?

What If?

Playful and poetic, Every Space Between highlights the little moments tucked between beginnings and endings, between actions and reactions, between you and me - and shows how special an ordinary day can become if you pay close enough attention.
You can find in-betweens everywhere! Some are as overlooked as the space between an itch and a scratch. Others are as thrilling as the pause between making a wish and blowing out your birthday candles. How you feel about an in-between really does depend on your perspective ... and each one is full of potential.
Once you spot the spaces in-between, everything changes. Instead of rushing from one thing to the next, you can pause to collect and reflect. Is this something you really want to do? How much longer can you wait? Maybe it's time to say ... sorry?
Sparkling with the signature wit of Naseem Hrab (author of How to Party Like a Snail) and the cracking comedic timing of John Martz (illustrator of How to Give Your Cat a Bath: In Five Easy Steps), Every Space Between is an unexpected invitation to a world of possibilities!
