![]() ![]() It’s a light-hearted read, told from the perspective of a slightly selfish, slightly arrogant cat who gets into lots of mischief, from stealing wieners off the counter to destroying Nana’s wig while she sleeps. Written for ages six to nine (though probably independent only for the upper half), Socks will resonate with any child who’s owned a pet or been part of an expanding family, and it will lend the experiences to children who haven’t. One that wailed and smelled funny and stole all the attention that used to be lavished on Socks. But his mistress’ comfortable lap began to shrink, and then one day Mr. The cat for whom the book is named was the Bricker’s only pet, pampered, loved and a little spoiled. Socks is written in true Beverly Cleary style. ![]()
