There lies a festive box, brightly wrapped, with their name on it. A shake for good measure, and then . . . wait, seriously? What did they ever do to deserve this? Based on the cult classic “Socks” (from his eponymous Christmas album), bluesy rock and roller JD McPherson pays hilarious homage to a stereotypically bad gift—and its disappointed recipients—in a deftly extended picture-book version of his song. Brought to energetic life in droll, retro artwork by Anika Orrock, who illustrated the album cover and liner, \u003ci\u003eSocks \u003c\/i\u003ewill prove a perfect fit for anyone who has ever gotten stressed over holiday gift-giving—and everyone, big or small, who’s come to appreciate the love wrapped up in even the humblest present. Includes a QR code to the “Socks” song.","brand":"Candlewick Press","offers":[{"title":"STANDARD","offer_id":62275575284099,"sku":"9781536237023","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/8456\/3587\/files\/9781536237023.jpg?v=1785536470","url":"https:\/\/shopcomics.eu\/products\/socks-a-kid-s-christmas-lament-9781536237023","provider":"Shop Comics EU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
