About the Book

Socks go missing in the laundry all the time, but where do they go?Join Malcolm, Petunia and all of their friends on an exciting journey through Sockland!Find out if lost socks are destined to be alone, or can the community of Sockland accept a happily mismatched pair?

About the Author :
Pre-kindergarten teacher Elvira Grassia and singer/songwriter Rose Hart began to create and develop 'An Odd Sock Story' while both living and working in New York City. It was when they teamed up with Jan Hart, based in London, that the idea was brought to life with vibrant and imaginative illustrations. The three continued to develop the journey of these socks into the fun and thoughtful story it has become.With a long career in graphic illustration and painting, Jan Hart has specialised in cartoons over recent years. She drew a long running cartoon strip for the 'Times Education Supplement' about a dysfunctional further education college, and has just completed a series of cartoon covers for a set of books on Bridge.The illustrations in 'An Odd Sock Story' are the kind of pictures she likes to work on the most, helping create a crazy world where anything is possible and focusing on all the little details that make it real. Close observers will detect a deep affection for Dr Marten footwear.

Review :
"This is outstanding! I saw an early version of the book, and I can testify it's a charmer." David Corcoran, 'The New York Times' // "The pictures are very cute and the book's concept is wonderfully imaginative." David Wise, 'New York Herald Tribune' // " 'An Odd Sock Story' is a creative jaunt into the world of Sockland, which turns out to be a hidden metaphor for discovering fresh insights into contemporary human and civil rights issues and debates. Everyone knows socks go missing in the laundry all the time. Where do they go? If they end up single, can they ever find happiness with a nonmatching mate? Spunky, quirky, colorful personalized animated sock characters enliven the story and the journey through Sockland which is made by Malcolm, Petunia and their friends... 'An Odd Sock Story' is praiseworthy because it presents difficult issues in a nonthreatening context, encouraging new ways of thinking about previous arguments." Midwest Book Review
