Book Reviews of Sock Monkey Rides Again
Book Review: Sweet Silliness
Summary: 5 Stars
The loveable Sock Monkey character is back, and he must face a fear. He has just landed a super movie role and can't wait. This means he'll get to wear cowboy clothes, ride a horse, lasso a cow, and...KISS A GIRL?! The starring role is too good to pass up, but he can't imagine kissing a girl. Whatever will he do? His friends help where possible, but they can only do so much.
Cece Bell's lively story and illustrations are sweetly funny. The story has a good morale at the end when Sock Monkey must overcome his fear of kissing in order to spare another character's feelings. Readers will learn that when we have to do things we don't want to, things can turn out just fine.
Older preschoolers and younger elementary students will enjoy the sweet silliness of this book.
