Author: Carrie Weston
Title: On Monday morning, Kevin put on his red socks.
Why you should read this book: An upbeat little tale about childhood superstition made more enticing to the young through the plot device of a pair of yellow underpants. Kevin's apparently natural clumsiness appears to diminish when he wears his yellow socks, but he can't find the auspicious garments on Field Day, and has to make do with yellow underpants instead. Although he fumbles and bumbles his way through the games, he still comes out ahead, attributing his success to his underwear.
Why you shouldn't read this book: You are a professional skeptic who has spent years browbeating children out of their bizarre delusions.
