From Booklist:
PreS-Gr. 2. This rollicking tale of upended laundry baskets and ransacked dresser drawers has, at its center, a familiar household object--a missing sock. Pippin, a chubby blue-and-pink striped creature that appears to be a mouse, can't find his yellow sock with clocks on it. He enlists the aid of his friend Tog, an equally colorful creature (a cat?) to find it, and the pair embarks on a joyful sock hunt, messing up the whole house. In one wacky double-page spread, the animals ponder lost socks as the art shows stretched-out, shrunk, and stinky socks "that nobody wants to know." Once the sock hunt has produced a wealth of mismatched socks, Pippin and Tog set about matching them, with their successful efforts pictured on a four-page foldout that provides a great opportunity for kids to see how colors and patterns match. Rescek's marker-bright illustrations, with socks spilling out in every direction, are delightfully chaotic. Pair this with Lizette's Green Sock (2005), by Catharina Valckx. Connie Fletcher
