Socks by Nick Sharratt
Socks is a ‘socking’ good read. We loved Socks.
A book about socks? It’s probably not so interesting but Nick Sharrat makes it so. It is funny, rhyming and a great read for little ones. To be honest, I enjoyed it too!
So whats it about? Well not really about socks but about a little bit of everything with a lot of silly big words where one word has been swapped for sock like a ‘socktopus’, a ‘sockodile’ and ‘the Sockness Monster’. To find out what these are – well you will just have to read the book!
We have read and re-read it several times now. Its brightly coloured illustrations add to the overall effect. It has a great rhyme scheme that appeals to little ones.
It’s a book for reading out loud and laughing out loud. We love reading it and then trying out our own ‘socky’ words.
