Summary: Socks for supper
Review: I found this book at a Garage Sale when I was doing day care and bought it a long with several others without reading it. When I read it to my children, it brought me to tears because of the sweet message. I have since lost it and am trying to find one. Definitely one of my favorite children's books.

Summary: A true Favourite for all ages!
Review: My siblings and I got this book for Christmas in 1978. I would have to say it is one of my favorites from my childhood and I have very fond memories from it. I expressed how much I loved it to my mom so she gave me our used copy last year for Christmas so I could read it to my little boy. My copy is very used and damaged. I so badly wish this would go back into print so I could buy a brand new one for my son and future children.

Summary: A Childhood Memory Forever
Review: This book has been a family childhood favorite for me and my siblings. We are between the ages of 27 and 34 now and still rave about Socks For Supper. We would talk about how we used to reinact the story while reading the book. If it was the wrong kind of cheese in the fridge, then so be it. It always gave us a feeling of satisfaction, acceptance, and that the characters in the book could be any one of us. It's hard to find books that keep you close at heart, with yourself and with the world. Socks For Supper makes you realize that you need to be grateful for the things you have and the people around you.

Summary: this is the best!!
Review: This children's book is written simply and would make a good beginner's book. However, it really lacks a plot and a purpose. You learn of this old couple's struggles being poor, but you never develop a fondness or any type of feeling for them. As you finish the story you're left thinking, "What a waste of time." There is no true ending to the story and you're left hanging.

Summary: Favorite Childhood Book
Review: This was one of my favorite childhood books and is the only childhood picture book that I loved that I have a copy of right now. The storyline of having an old couple who was poor trade socks made from the old man's sweater for cheese and milk romanticized cheese and milk for me. Strangely, when I read about foods in a book, my imagination makes me salivate for them! In addition to simple and enjoyable pictures and a fun storyline, Jack Kent's book introduces children to the issue of poverty somewhat, that not everyone has what they need and need to work for what they need; and issues of giving and exchanging.
