Have You Seen My New Blue Socks?
“I have lost my new blue socks. Did I put them in my box?†Simple rhymes—including <I>socks, box, fox,</I> and <I>ox</I>!—spin the tale of a small duck who waddles through the countryside, forlornly searching for his blue socks. “I’m trying not to be depressed. / Without my socks I feel undressed.†Finally, a sharp-eyed peacock sees a bit of blue peeking out of duck’s lace-up shoes and the mini-mystery is solved! Soft-hued, adorable pen-and-ink and watercolor paintings adorn this winsome story that shares the familiar experience of not really losing something after all.
