This is a humorously illustrated story featuring Tina’s hunt for that perfect pair of socks. When she finds it, finally, she refuses to take them off until her classmates are forced to take action.
A must-read. :-)
I must admit, I was a tad concerned about introducing the children to Tina – someone who’s messy, stubborn and doesn’t change her socks. But then, at the end of the book, the children do realize it does no good to wear socks for ten days!
Excerpt
After Tina wore her socks for ten more days, a whole flock of Canada geese flew over her house and dropped right out of the sky from the smell.
Two moose walked through her yard and fell over from the smell.
Ducks, raccoons, and squirrels fell over when she walked to school.
