Sally and the purple socks

Review

This is a great story for read aloud because it supports dialogic reading with your child(ren).  The images augment the text by adding more to the story than the words alone.

Sally receives a pair of socks in the mail that are much too small for her.  Throughout the course of the story, they grow to gargantuan sizes and she makes new uses for them as they grow.  Ultimately, they shrink back to the size of her feet, just in time for the first snow of winter.

There are beautiful illustrations to go along with a clever story that young children will love.
