Publisher's summary

An instant New York Times, USA Today, and indie bestseller!

Award-winning author and artist Chanel Miller tells a fun, funny, and poignant story of friendship and community starring Magnolia Wu, a ten-year-old sock detective bent on returning all the lonely only socks left behind in her parents' NYC laundromat.

Down at the bottom of the tall buildings of New York City, Magnolia Wu sits inside her parents’ laundromat. She has pinned every lost sock from the laundromat onto a bulletin board in hopes that customers will return to retrieve them. But no one seems to have noticed. In fact, barely anyone has noticed Magnolia at all.

What she doesn’t know is that this is about to be her most exciting summer yet. When Iris, a new friend from California arrives, they set off across the city to solve the mystery of each missing sock, asking questions in subways and delis and plant stores and pizzerias, meeting people and uncovering the unimaginable.

With each new encounter, Magnolia learns that when you’re bold enough to head into the unknown, things start falling into place.

Critic reviews

National Indie Bestseller & Indie Next pick ♦ New York Times for Kids pick ♦ Amazon Best Book of the Month ♦ Junior Library Guild selection

Absolute middle grade perfection . . . This book is a celebration of the quiet courage and daily bonds that make us a community!”–Kelly Yang, award-winning author of Front Desk

“I loved this deeply real yet wondrous tale about how the little things in life turn out to be the big things.”–Abby Hanlon, author of Dory Fantasmagory

"Thoughtful, creative, and compassionate . . . Miller’s pitch-perfect narrative voice balances humor and whimsy with harsher realities. Magnolia isn’t insulated from negative feelings; rather, her world is one where strength can be quiet, empathy can be learned, and community is critical. Wildly funny, charming, and deeply heartfelt."–Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Such a sweet story.

This book would be great for a mother daughter reading time. It opens up conversations about what different things might mean. It is an adventure.
