This bright and exuberant preschool read-aloud from bestselling novelist Emma Straub, author of This Time Tomorrow, will bring smiles and giggles and a new appreciation for everyday objects.

It's easy to take shoes for granted. But have you ever thought about how many things a shoe can do? From blades, wheels, and spikes to jangling jewelry and squishing soles, shoes help us do our work and enjoy our games, they keep us warm and dry, and they even let us express ourselves more fully. The next time you lace up your sneakers after reading this joyous book, you'll want to give your shoes a high five to thank them for being so cool!
