He is able to make the most mundane task turn into an unexpected adventure. This time around, searching for a missing sock leads Little Critter on a treasure hunt through the neighborhood. Who could anticipate a sock search digging up rocket ships, robots, bulldozers, bugles, bomber jackets, cowboy hats, and more knickknacks? The treasure hunt puts Little Critter in some precarious circumstances, but he is able to learn how to share and how to give to others. Mayer’s Little Critter is an easy classic. Tough to beat.     web reviews   Zane Ewton/2014 for curled up with a good kid's book   For grown-up fiction, nonfiction and speculative fiction book reviews, visit our sister site Curled Up With a Good Book (www.curledup.com)
