Brief Summary: Four young girls, who are looking for the perfect shoe go, shoe shopping. They try on fluffy ones, sparkly ones, and ritzy glitzy ones. They eventually try on every shoe in the store! They become so overwhelmed that they leave without buying one shoe. Once they get home, they decide to make their own shoes, and they are EXACTLY what they were looking for.
How you would use: This would be a fun book to read to the class (maybe more for the girls). I would comment how just because you maybe can't find what you want or afford what you want, you can make what you want. I would give them a piece of paper with a plain shoe on it and let them design their own shoe.
