- "A young boy's passion for doughnuts leads him into interesting adventures."
- "Who need donuts when you've got love? First published in 1973 and subsequently out of print for nearly 30 years, this strangely bizarre book will either pull you completely into a world you never dreamed of or repulse you! Wide-eyed youngster Sam decides to leave his boring, suburban existence for the big city, in search of more donuts than his parents could ever buy him. The tricycle-riding protagonist makes friends with a donut collector, Mr. Bikferd, who shares with him his tricks of the trade. While working, Sam also meets the Sad Old Woman (who is rather scary) and Pretzel Annie. Sam learns a great deal during his adventure in the city, and his donuts prove to be a real lifesaver! Completely covered in black and white illustrations that at first glance are emotionally one dimensional, the depth of the graphics after even one additional reading will surprise and delight readers (who may need a magnifying glass to soak up everything drawn). Exaggerated city scenes with tiny, goofy displays such as "we buy new and used sandwiches; guarantee on all parts" and "please enter through our entrance" pepper the pages."@en
