About this book
Mr Fox has lost his socks! Where could they be? Along with a helpful little mouse, he starts looking in all the different places where they might be hiding around the house - in a trunk, under the mat, in a cupboard... Along the way, he finds all sorts of different items of clothing - but what he really wants is his socks!
A 'getting dressed' book, a hide-and-seek book and a lift-the-flap book, all rolled into one! This is one of four in the Tales from Acorn Wood series, by the creators of The Gruffalo. It has a simple rhyming storyline and small flaps for readers to lift to help Mouse and Fox peer into each hiding place.
The ultimate question, of course, is will Fox find his socks?
