In this rhyming Little Golden Book, readers will explore all the imaginary adventures they can have in a new pair of boots!
In silver boots, I'd aim for the stars. Zipping, zooming, I'd land upon Mars.
Picking a new pair of shoes is an exciting decision--will you be splashing through puddles or wading through snow? Plodding and trotting or clomping and stomping? Whatever the adventure, this Little Golden Book will spark your child's imagination!
Jenny Goebel is the author of GRAVE IMAGES, a forthcoming middle grade novel from Scholastic (Nov 1,2013).
She lives just outside of Denver, and if she's not hiking up a mountain or mothering, or doing both simultaneously, she's probably sitting at her computer writing.
In this Little Golden Book, buying new shoes takes center stage. Using rhymed verse to make it more accessible to young readers, we are introduced to various types of boots. The young characters actions in the different boots are bolded gerunds that readers can also emulate. This is a good easy reader book that can invite a lot of interaction with the texts and the illustrations.
