YOUNGER FICTION
Lewis, J. Patrick

The Shoe Tree of Chagrin

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Chris Sheban. Susannah DeClare, a frontier woman of legendary height and fame, journeys across the plains making shoes and telling of her adventures. Slow in the beginning, Lewis's carefully crafted language builds to a satisfying, if subtle, tale. The soft, atmospheric illustrations are too infrequent to fully capture the nuances of the text.
