Put 10 socks in a washing machine and only nine socks come out. How they disappear ( and where they go) is a worldwide phenomenon. Inexplicable, that is, until now. Meet Flusi, the Sock Monster. He's a little creature of indisputable fierceness, overcome by desire to possess as many socks as possible.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 2–Maja's mum can't find the mates to the family's socks. When the child attempts to put one on, she discovers Flusi, the sock monster, biting her toe. They become fast friends and play together all day. That night, Flusi gets angry when the girl tucks him into her doll bed; he's annoyed to be treated like a toy or stuffed animal. All is set to rights the next night when Maja thinks of the perfect place for him to sleep. Overall, the brightly colored cartoons with large-eyed characters disappoint. The plot lacks detail and the story is too long-winded.–Debbie Stewart Hoskins, Grand Rapids Public Library, MI

This review is from: Flusi: The Sock Monster (Hardcover)
Flusi, The Sock Monster is a delightful children's picturebook following the friendship between a girl and the little blue sock monster who swipes socks, leaving only one of a pair. A cheerful, intermediate-level story illustrated in whimsical color, that emphasizes the importance of respecting others (i.e. never put one's sock monster friend in a doll bed with stuffed animals - they are sock monsters, after all). An all-around fun picturebook to read and share.

This review is from: Flusi: The Sock Monster (Hardcover)
I wrote a book very similair to this in 2001 and as a Nail tech in Naples Fl I told people about it, mine is better I didnt give all the details, to people. Thank God! are you married to my banker DAN. I can prove it on my laptop computer and all the people I worked with. WOW to steal my book idea, yours isnt a story from the heart like mine KARMA, how sad to do this to me.
