Brief Book Summary: This story is made to help children tie their shoes. It goes step by step in helping children make the perfect bow. It also gives complete instructions with different colors to make it easier for children to follow.

Response to Two Professional Reviews: I had the same perspective about the book as the two recommendations listed above. I loved the colorful illustrations thought it was extremely easy to follow because of the step-by-step instructions.
Evaluation of Literary Elements: I loved the bright and colorful pictures on each page. I also loved how the instructions were very simple and easy to follow. It gave step by step of how to tie your shoes as opposed to listing all of the steps on one page.
Consideration of Instructional Application: This is great to incorporate into a classroom because it shows children the correct way to tie their shoe. A prop that could be used while reading the book is a shoe that each of the children could practice tying. The children could each try and tie the shoe correctly after listening to the book to see if they understand it.
