Do you ever wonder what happens to socks that get lost in the dryer? Join Lefty and Righty for the adventure of a lifetime as they sneak out of the laundry room with a destination in mind: a White Sox game!

Through their fun-filled day, they’ll discover the sights, sounds—and even the tastes—of Chicago, all while encountering a few surprises along the way!
MY REVIEW
I’m sure many of you have put pairs of socks in the washer or dryer and when you took them out, one or more were missing. Have you ever wondered where they went? I have. And I loved how the missing socks in this charming children’s book raced to get back home before their absence was noticed.
Lefty and Righty escape from the dryer and head off to see the amazing city of Chicago, with the ultimate goal being to see the White Sox play. Along the way they visit many famous sites and taste some yummy hotdogs. I had as much fun as these socks learning about Chicago.
Imagine their surprise when they get to the ballgame and discover it’s not socks playing but humans. They still enjoyed the game and enjoyed many of the usual traditions while there.
Then it’s the race back home. Will they be caught out?
What a fun, clever story to educate children about Chicago. The illustrations are delightful and the adventure super fun. I can’t wait to see where these socks go next time.
5 STARS
Award-winning children’s book author Lori Orlinsky lives in. . . you guessed it . . . Chicago! Lori is the mother of three little ladies, who are small but mighty. At 5’1”, she wishes her children’s picture book, Being Small (Isn’t So Bad After All), was around when she was growing up. Lori also wrote The Tooth Fairy’s Tummy Ache and Balloons for Tiger. Her latest book, The Adventures of Lefty and Righty: The Windy City, was inspired by her daily struggle to find matching socks when they come out of the dryer.
