Sock Monkey Hardcover – April 15, 2008

The photos of the sock monkeys are like colorful portraits of relatives and friends; my six-year-old is convinced that one of the photos is of his big brother's best friend, Calder. He's also sure that another photo of a somewhat stern looking monkey is absolutely and unequivocally our (meanish) neighbor down the street. Our 15-year-old is entranced with the outlandish outfits that some of the monekys are sporting. The book is a perfect size and has the look and feel of a marvelously kooky schoolbook from my childhood.I tried to get the 2008 sock monkey calendar by Arne Svenson and Ron Warren, but it was sold out by the time I ordered. This time I didn't wait. I just bought multiples of the book and am putting them away as fun gifts for the holidays.

Bought this for my wife who is a big sock monkey fan. She loves it! The are lots and lots of really good pictures on high quality paper.

This little book is packed with a huge amount of character and creativity. The sock monkeys have a loveable humor and sincerity that comes from the hearts and fingers of all the many people who sewed them. The pictures are nice on the eyes because the colors are rich and beautiful and the textures of the yarns and fabrics are touchable. This book is being loved by everyone in my entire family. It's a great book.

Loved all the photos and we had fun giving voices to each character. Fun for kids and adults.

This is a very sweet book with no text, just portraits of sock monkeys. The monkeys are all different, and the paper that the images are printed on is of very high quality.

If you are interested in or love sock monkeys, this book is great for viewing many, many variations.

It's sock monkeys! Who wouldn't love it?
