This book is a great book to read to a classroom. Not only does it have great illustrations, but it also has great themes to show people that you do not eed everything everyone has. It teaches great lessons and also has great pictures that coincide with the story it is telling. It talks about a boy who is haunted by this pair of shoes he has been wanting, that everyone else wears at school. He trys to convince his Grandma how much he wants them, and meets a new friend along the way!
