My very own SOCK MONKEY!

The genesis of the sock monkey came

 about when the craze of stuffed animals

 swept across Europe and into America, where

 it met the burgeoning arts and crafts movement

 in the United States. Mothers there took to

 sewing sock monkeys as toys for their children,

 and sock monkeys soon became a fixture of

 American nurseries.

These sock monkeys were made by 

Josephine McGill of Palmyra, NJ in the 

1960s. They are still loved and given 

a good home today by her grand-daughter.

Tonight Dan brought me home a Sock Monkey!

I'm always telling him how I love them.

He is familiar with Sock Monkeys, he 

owns one! His aunt Hun made him one

when he was a little boy.

Thanks Dan for making my day!

Love YOU!

I need to come up with a name for

this Monkey. It's a he.

Got any ideas?
