'Smouha and Marton wring genuine suspense and edgy humor out of this
clever, colorful tale.'-- NEW YORK TIMES A beautifully illustrated
picturebook about a sock that loses his pair and the identity crisis
that ensues. It's Phil and Dale's favourite time of the week - the
WASH! The two socks impress each other with their acrobatics; flipping,
spinning and shrieking, much to the disapproval of the other clothes in
the washing machine. But why should they care? They've got each other
and that's all that matters... right? When Phil goes missing, Dale is
left contemplating life in solitude. After a brief encounter with a red
shirt, he finds himself alone in the washing machine, lost and pink.
When he is finally reunited with his buddy, Phil fails to recognise him
and the socks must decide what being a pair means if one of you has
changed.... Written in comic book form, and brought to life in gorgeous
crayon illustrations, this a tale of friendship and identity that will
delight children and adults alike.
