An amazing well written story, just wishing for his birthday. to continue everyday, doesn't seem like an awful lot, but they say be careful what you wish for... Days upon days of birthdays , endless gifts, cakes and not much left to buy, can lead to boredom. But with funny jokes through this great story

I liked it when Sam wanted his birthday to stop being every day so they could find Grandpa Sam . My favorite character was Sam the boy. I would recommend it to someone who likes adventure book.

I would recommend this book for children from age 9-12. Grandpa Sam was my favourite because of his funny swear words like Stinkingbobblything.

I learnt to be careful for what you wish for. It was fiction from a good mind. I liked it because Sam Green cared about his grandpa. I would recommend it to some one else.

This book was ok. I hated the part when they boy (I forgot his name) was so selfish and I loved it when they found Grandpa Sam on the island.

I would recommend this book to someone who likes exploring and wishes that their birthday was everyday. However, you have to be grateful for what you have in your everyday life. And that will be all you need, to feel completely content.
