Seedfolks Favorite Character

My favorite character is Sam. I like Sam because he tries to solve problems in the world and make different races get along with each other. He seems to have a lot of care for people and wants to make them happy. Sam is all about doing right and not wrong. He encourages other people to do right also. I can relate to Sam because Sam and I both like to make people happy no matter what they look like. We both like to do good and we both are trying to make the world a better place. Sam seems very much like me and I like his caring personality.
