"Socks and Charles William"
It's the last chapter of our book. I hope you have enjoyed it. Don't forget that you have a writing assignment to complete once you have finished. You are to write a short story about Socks living in your house. This whole book was written from the cat's point of view. We saw the Brickers, Old Taylor, Tiffy, and everything else the way Socks saw them. So you are going to write a page telling what Socks would think, feel and do in your house. You will turn this in on our first day of school in August.
And now, on to our last book discussion. When the chapter first starts, we see that Charles William is getting older, and Socks is not really sure how to feel about him. How do we know this? Then comes my favorite part of the book--NAP TIME! Everything seems to go wrong. The door gets shut and blocked and then the fun starts. How did you feel as you read this chapter? I don't imagine that Mrs. Bricker thought it was funny, but I did! Finally, the book ends with everyone safe and Socks happy. Why do you think happens after the book ends? Share your ideas!
Well, that's it. If you are getting into this discussion late (and I hope many of you will be joining in), remember you can comment on any of the chapters. Under each post is a label that says "Socks." If you click on that label, you will be able to see all of the Socks discussions, but they'll be in reverse order. Add your ideas to any or all of the discussions.
I am still in Illinois this week. We are having a baby shower for my sister-in-law, Erica, on Saturday and then I'll be heading back to Nashville for a week or so. Then I'm off to visit Brandon and Erica in Florida for a bit. I should be back in time for the start of school, so don't get excited--you're stuck with me!

The book was boaring to me
It really is okay if you don't like the book, but give us the reasons why. Think about it and share your thoughts and ideas. You know you can't make a statement like that without giving me your reasons. What didn't you like? What would have made it better?

I am so sorry I didnt get to participate in your last Blogs on the book "SOCKS" I thought the book was going to turn out better than it was. My favorite character was Socks.
i like the book because it took up time when i was bored

I liked the book because there were alot of surprises. Like when the brickers decided that sock was going to live outside. And sock was being silly with the cotton and teddy bear.
