Shoe Shoe Baby

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Katherine Lodge. Seven days a week, Shoe Shoe, a shoe store owner from a big shoe-loving family, waits on several "weird" customers: Gumshoe the detective needs secret shoes, Popova the ballerina needs shoes to put a spring in her step, Tex from New Mex needs some speedy boots, etc. The tepid, directionless text is offset by the zany Kalman-esque illustrations in bright pastel colors and jaunty perspectives.
