Genre: Fantasy Age Appropriateness: primary Media: digitally Review: This book is about how Sock Monkey the famous toy actor gets offered a role as a singing cowboy. In this movie he gets to lasso a cow, ride a horse, yodel and kiss the leading girl in the movie. He does not want to kiss the girl but wants to be famous. So, Sock Monkey decides that the only way he can be a star is to kiss the girl. Critique: This is a good fantasy picture book because it has toy animals, Sock Monkey's, bunnies, pig, and a frog talking to each other, teaching one another how to lasso a cow, how to yodel, and none of that can happen in real life. This is a good fantasy book because it shows that in real life their are choices you have to make, but the author does this by having toy animals come to life and show it in a creative and non-stressful way. Sock Monkey returns in this third picture-book devoted to his adventures, following upon Sock Monkey Takes a Bath and Sock Monkey Boogie Woogie. Offered the role of Red Reardon in a new singing cowboy movie, Sock Monkey is ecstatic, until he learns that he must kiss the girl at the end of the film. Yodeling, horseback-riding and lassoing are one thing, but can our toy hero work up the courage to kiss Lulu Nevada? Originally published in 2007, and then reprinted in this 2015 edition - unlike the first Sock Monkey book, the title here wasn't changed - Sock Monkey Rides Again pairs the same quirky sense of humor exhibited by its predecessors with colorful cartoon-style artwork. Although not precisely to my taste - truthfully, I find the illustrations in these books a bit garish - I think the visuals here work very well with the offbeat humor. Recommended to anyone who has read and enjoyed the first two Sock Monkey stories. I read this because my wife loves sock monkeys. I don't know why, but she does. I have to say that while this story wasn't life changing, I enjoyed it all the same. Sock Monkey is worried about giving someone a kiss when he is asked to star in a new movie with a kissing scene. He frets and worries and eventually chickens out at the moment of truth. He regrets it though because the actress is so distraught over the rejection and finally relents only to discover that the experience wasn't as bad as he'd made it out to be.
