[The Brothers · Rating 4 out of 5]

Told in rhyme, a boy walks into a shoe store with a very specific set of requirements for his next pair of sneakers. When the clerk offers him everything he asked for, but tells him they don't have that pair in red, the boy has to decide how important color is.

Great illustrations.
