Oh yes, I myself used to talk to inanimate things when I was tiny :)

Thank you so much for your kind words and for stopping by and leaving a comment! :romance-heartbeating:

Sock really is adorable and the illustrations reinforce this opinion of mine.

Yes, the getting redirected bit due to smell got me smiling throughout the book too.

That's a splendid idea. Yes, it would be really marvelous. Wishing you the best!

Nice review. The book indeed as a unique moral lesson. You really don't need anyone to accomplish the things you want because you can get it through self determination.
