Sally and the Purple Socks

40 pp. | Philomel | May, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-0-399-24734-7 $15.99
(3) K-3 Sally the duck is thrilled with her new purple socks until they start to grow. And grow. Sally's flexible, and she turns her socks into, among other things, a hat and scarf, curtains, and a circus tent. Rendered mainly in greens, yellows, and purples, the illustrations reveal a deft comic touch as Sally tries to manage her ever-burgeoning socks.
