Lizette's Green Sock

(2) K-3 Young bird Lizette is delighted to find a green sock. Her delight quickly turns to disappointment when feline meanies poke fun at her: "What a dummy!...Socks come in pairs!" Friend Bert wears the sock as a cap, which helps Lizette feel better. This charmingly offbeat French import, with childlike pictures, speaks directly to the pleasure kids derive from found objects.
