Sockflea: A Stuffie in the Wind

PreS-Gr 2–A young elephant and their grown-up are preparing for a super exciting camping trip where marshmallows will be roasted, and songs will be sung around the campfire. As packing ensues, consideration is given as to whether to pack some stuffed animals to accompany them, but the young elephant decides that they are way too old to be bringing those along, and “Sugarpie smells like puke because of that time. And Bad Debbie is, well…bad.” Adorable round-eyed stuffed animals stare blankly back. Once the tent is set and nighttime falls, the youngster is having serious misgivings about making it through the night without a stuffie in tow. Despite ­being overtired, the grown-up has a solution; a stuffie made from socks called Sockflea. The young elephant discovers that in a pinch, Sockflea will do just great. Sockflea gets the privilege of joining in the adventures of the remainder of the camping trip. ­Digitally ­illustrated in vivid colors, the book offers readers something to laugh at on every page. Told from the young elephant’s perspective in a hilarious voice, this story will give even the youngest readers a book that entertains and delights.
