Odd Socks Illustrated by Rebecca
Ashdown Holiday House, 2016. $16.95 PICTURE BOOK
Content: G.
Suki and Sosh are a
pair of new socks that are married. They
love being on their humans feet and doing all the fun things that the human
does. One day they are separated, but
Sosh wants to find his wife and after much looking he finds her in a craft bin,
where she has been turned into a sock puppet.
Eventually Sosh and Suki are both sock puppets and happy again to be together.
This book is bizarre, starting with the
married socks and moving onto the smiley faced underwear that they share a
drawer with. Besides giving off a very
melancholy feel throughout the story for the lost sock, kids don’t relate to a
husband and wife sock story. The
illustrations are messy and not attractive.
