A little boy has 38 socks in his drawer. Some old, some new, and not all are pairs. There are socks of every different shape, style and color you can imagine, and socks for all types of sports or special occasions. Blue ones to wear when you are feeling sad, and green ones to wear when you are camping so you can hide in the bushes. You know, while socks are great for keeping feet warm, they are also great for sliding on floors, or even better for rolling into balls and bowling. But what happens to all the missing socks? Where do they all go? They go into the wash, never to be seen again. Maybe there is a magic dragon who likes to steal socks, one sock at a time? Maybe, the dragon likes to wear odd socks? Or maybe he likes to eat them?
