I received this gorgeous picture book from the author today and I just couldn't wait to have a peek inside it! This is a delightful story about a fairy who decorates his home, and finds a use for all those socks that be...more

I love Bobbie Hinman's books! I forgot about these for a little while and then I happened to see this at the library and swiped it right up. I'm going to order these though because these are some that need to be on hand for whenever the desire strikes.
We listened to this in the car on the way back from Knoebel's and even my parents - who don't read children's books - liked it a lot.
The rhyming isn't that silly mess that so many books offer, Himan's rhymes are really polished. The illus...more

Bella's school librarian recommended these books to me - simply because "fairies" are a big deal in our house. The 'tooth fairy' and the 'sleeping fairy' have always been regular visitors here, but we now have the 'sock' and 'knot' fairies that visit since reading these stories. A fun read if your child "believes" in fairies, as mine do.

What a charming book! Did you ever wonder what happens to your missing socks? Why they get holes? Or why they get mismatched? The sock fairy knows why.

I picked this book up because I had read The Knot Fairy, also by Hinman, and really enjoyed it. This is beautifully illustrated, and, like The Knot Fairy, its childlike, whimsical feelings come through. And also like The Knot Fairy, it comes with a CD that has a song about The Sock Fairy and a reading of the book.

I just liked this book because it is a very creative and fun book! Losing socks is something that happens to all of us, and it was an adorable explanation as to why it happened. What a great way to teach creativity and writing creatively to children.

Love this one too, so does my 19 month old daughter! She loves the fairies and the mouse in the book, we hunt him out on every page! So cute!
