As this story opens we meet Sam, a young fisherman’s daughter, who loves to tell stories. Sam has two real friends, Bangs her cat, and Thomas, a young boy who lives nearby. Sam keeps on telling her tall tales, ignoring her father’s warnings. One day she learns the hard way about telling the truth and telling tall tales, or “Moonshine” as her father calls it. Even though Sam has some upset when her tall tales almost lose her the only friends she has, their simply illustrated tale ends happily.
