Summary: A Pocket for Corduroy by Don Freeman
Review: At the laundromat, Corduroy gets out of the chair that Lisa had told him to stay in while she was helping her mom put her clothes in the washer. He looks around the laundromat for a pocket. He found towels and washcloths. Then he found a laundromat bag that had just come out of the washer. He got into the bag and as the artist was putting the clothes into the dryer, Corduroy tumbled out. He was all damp. The artist dried Corduroy's overalls and left him on top of a washer because he didn't know who he belonged to. That night, Corduroy stayed in the laundromat alone. He looked for a pocket again. He pours out a box of detergent chips that he thinks is snow and he thinks he is skiing but he is really sliding into a basket. He thinks that he's in a cage which he doesn't want to be in. He falls asleep...I would recommend this book to anyone who has read other books done by this author. If you liked his other books, you will love this one. I loved it!

Summary: Finding A Pocket
Review: I really liked the book A Pocket for Corduroy. The pictures are colorful and full of details that go along with the story. Corduroy is a curious bear looking for a pocket to put on his pants. While he is looking for his pocket, he finds himself in many different adventurous situations in a laundromat. This book allows the child to use his/her imagination. It also teaches children to be helpful to others.
