Those Shoes
Maribeth Boelts
In this witty, wise picture book, Boelts presents a kid s-eye view of a consumer fad that rages through school at gale force. Bulletin of the Center for Children s Books (starred review)
All Jeremy wants is a pair of those shoes, the ones everyone at school seems to be wearing. Though Jeremy s grandma says they don t have room for want, just need, when his old shoes fall apart at school, he is more determined than ever to have those shoes, even a thrift-shop pair that are much too small. But sore feet aren t much fun, and Jeremy soon sees that the things he has warm boots, a loving grandma, and the chance to help a friend are worth more than the things he wants.
