In the cozy bottom drawer of the Thompson family laundry room lives a lively bunch of socks known as The SockKids. Every day is an adventure, because these stocks never stay in one place for long!
The SockKids – Stretch, Stinky, Sudsy, Wooly, Buttons, Rinse, Sunny, and Flowers – travel through time in the spin cycle of the Thompson's washing machine.
These colorful characters inhabit the books of creator Michael John Sullivan.

Stretch is an athletic tube sock who can jump higher than any sock around.

Stinky doesn't mean to smell bad, he just has an obsession with candy.

Sudsy is a prankster who loves bugs.

Wooly loves to read and has a secret desire to be a star basketball player.

Bubbly Buttons loves fashion and enjoys dressing up.

Flowers, a rainbow-colored sock, finds good in everyone.

The mysterious Mr. Sock comes from another planet. He has a group of followers called the Dust Bunnies.

Rinse swims like a dolphin, constantly wears his goggles, and is always looking for a puddle or a pond to swim around in.

Sunny is the youngest of the SockKids and unintentionally gets into trouble. But she's so cute that nobody minds.

Michael John Sullivan created the animated characters after his daughters teased him about never having matching socks. Read more here.
