Corduroy doesn't have any pockets! The furry bear's search for a pocket of his own takes him on an adventure filled with the sights, sounds, smells and hazards of the Laundromat. As a result, Lisa and her beloved bear become separated as Corduroy ends up locked inside the Laundromat all night. And what do bears do all night in places like this? They ski in the soap flakes and nap in the baskets, of course! Fortunately, Lisa returns early the next morning to reclaim her tired little friend. Soon, Lisa is sewing Corduroy a pocket of his very own and again all is well in the life of Corduroy. "This merry tale gets added interest from...the setting, a multi-ethnic urban neighborhood, of cuddly Corduroy and his pal Lisa, a black child, and her attractive mother." - Publishers Weekly.

It seems Corduroy is always having a fashion crisis. In this adventures he wants a pocket for his overalls. Once again he is left alone trying to solve his clothing problem. Corduroy's tales always ends happily. He is reunited with Lisa and receives his pocket. Its a children's book so the sweet nature ending is not a big surprise. The bear is cute and children will love reading his adventures. This book is the best in the series due to the interesting plot line of needing a pocket. Very few books have handled that issue.
