About the author
Sam Epstein
125 books6 followersSam Epstein (November 22, 1909 - January 31, 2000) was an American author of juvenile non-fiction books.
Starting in 1938, Sam, along with his wife Beryl Williams Epstein, jointly wrote over 120 books.
Although Sam is often individually credited for many of the books, Beryl played a major role in their creation. While Epstein and his wife had very different writing styles, they took turns writing chapters and editing each other’s work, enabling their styles to blend together.
The couple contributed numerous titles to several children’s book series, including the Real Books, All About, and Franklin Watts First Book series.
They also wrote the Ken Holt Mystery series under the name Bruce Campbell.

**Like my reviews? Then you should follow me! Because I have hundreds more just like this one. With each review, I provide a Cleanliness Report, mentioning any objectionable content I come across so that parents and/or conscientious readers (like me) can determine beforehand whether they want to read a book or not. Content surprises are super annoying, especially when you’re 100+ pages in, so here’s my attempt to help you avoid that!
