Product Description:
Something new can change the way you look; it can change the way you feel; and, in the case of new socks, it can change the way you walk--especially if you're a chicken. With a quirky sense of humor, retro style, and hip attitude, Bob Shea captures the excitement one irresistible chick experiences when he puts on a brand new pair of socks.
This is for readers who have decided that they can wear nothing but their superman capes or tutus or have discovered that the only food worth eating is macoroni and cheese. In other words, this book is told with "kid logic" and it embraces the affection we have for things when they're brand new.

I liked the title, picked it up and was initially dismayed to see the chick had the voice of "The Pigeon" (Mo Willems). Once I got past that quirk, I found some qualities that make it a good book for laps or groups. The striking (retro?) bold color scheme and simple text will appeal to babies -its first audience- which can then extend itself to toddlers because of those very same reasons, including now the cute storyline. For early literacy skills, the use of the exclamation mark comes to mind.It ... Read More

I bought New Socks for my 3 year old son who LOVES the color orange. He has a pair of orange socks himself. He likes the pictures and the silly story. The story is very simple and short.

What is it you want out of your average everyday picture book? Do you want a story? A plot of some sort with a beginning, middle, and an end? Or are your demands a little more broad? I mean, what if a picture book went and just talked about socks for pages at a time? These days, publishers of children's literature have had their eyes opened wide by the phenomenal success of titles like, Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!. So suddenly it's perfectly okay for the narrator of a work for preschoolers to ... Read More

As a youth services librarian, a lot of crap comes across my desk. "New Socks" however is the total opposite of crap. It is so wonderful! Not only is humourous and bright for kids, but parents/readers will get a big laugh. One of the most difficult things to do is to create material for children that is just as entertaining for the adults having to watch/read it. "New Socks" totally achieves this. My favorite part is "Wood floor! WHOAH!" Because, I TOTALLY still slide across my wood floor in new socks!

This is a beautiful book featuring wonderful mod design. My very young babe loved the bright big pictures. But let's be honest, for children who don't read yet, it's all about how much enthusiasm the parent or caregiver has for reading the book. If you enjoy reading it, your child will. This happy and energetic little book is sure to be loved by kids again and again, in large part because mom, dad, brother, sister, friend, babysitter or anyone else with the ability to read will enjoy sharing it aloud. ...
