A hilarious twist to the perpetual question: Who made this mess? When Dad asks who left socks all over the place, a brother and sister insist that it was “Not Me.” Dad is quite sure that the kids are not telling the truth, until he is introduced to Not Me, who in turn accuses Not True, who exposes the real sock bandit: Not Fair. Monsters personifying a child’s typical responses brilliantly address he act of blaming others and excuse-making by focusing on the humour of the situation.
