A charming story about Francis and his weekly visits to the Small socks laundromat. Francis loves to spend this time with his dad and to share the different things they do every week, while waiting for their laundry to be done. Killing dust mites, mixing patterns. What Francis does not enjoy his the owners granddughter Lily Rainboots. Lily loves to play tricks on customers and especially, it seems, on Francis. The resident laundromat cat, Mouse, is also placed in jeopardy by one of Lily's tricks. As if being cat named Mouse isn't bad enough!
Delightful illustrations that compliment the story and add to the fun. Great as a read aloud and as a one on one storytime. Proving to children that you can have fun whatever you are doing. Would also be a great story starter for a writing lesson. ARC supplied by NetGalley.… (más)
