Tells the story of the Sock Fairy, who is responsible for lost socks, mismatched socks, and holes in socks.

Publisher Marketing: "I have lost my new blue socks. Did I put them in my box?" Simple rhymes--including "socks, box, fox, " and "ox"!--spin the tale of a small duck who waddles through the countryside, forlornly searching for his blue socks. "I'm trying not to be depressed. / Without my socks I feel undressed." Finally, a sharp-eyed peacock sees a bit of blue peeking out of duck's lace-up shoes and the mini-mystery is solved! Soft-hued, adorable...

Jacques and Spock, two orange socks that are brothers, are separated after Jacques is washed in the whites load of laundry.
