Sock Monkey, A Children’s Book (Tony Millionaire’s…)

    (Dark Horse, 2001)
™ and ©2001 Tony Millionaire

From the wilds of the jungle to the comfortable confines of the bedroom of a child, Eisner-award-winning writer/artist Tony Millionaire weaves a tale of whimsy and camaraderie. The adventures of an unlikely team of children’s toys and the lessons of acceptance and cooperation are a treasure for anyone who wants to instill a love of reading in a young child.

This trade paperback is actually an illustrated children's book and not a true comic. In this book, Tony Millionaire reveals the origin of the sock monkey, named Uncle Gabby by Ann-Louise and explains how the stuffed toy can talk, think and interact with the rest of the bizarre and beloved characters that inhabit the little girl's room. Although a contemporary work, the artwork and writing style evoke the feel and atmosphere of the Victorian Age.
