Two Shoes, Blue Shoes, New Shoes

What can be better than a pair of new shoes?
Not just any new pairs of shoes, but new, blue shoes. A brand new pair of shoes can hop and skip to school better than anything. While they are at it, these new shoes can race and swing on a rope and tap out a tune. And if you really let them get going, new shoes can run away with your imagination and take you on a wild and crazy ride.

Nobody is proud of her shiny new footwear as this little girl, who bounces and dances her way through a magical adventure that only two, new, blue shoes can find.

Author, Sally Fitz-Gibbon has captured her heart of a child in this roller-coaster ride of a story. Her verse sings off the page in a lilting rhythm that will get little feet tapping away in time. New Jersey artist Farida Zaman uses New York?s Central Park as a backdrop for her lively illustrations, an irresistible blend of warmly familiar and ever-s-slightly absurd.
