PRESCHOOL
Raschka, Chris

New Shoes

(2) PS In this picture book that celebrates preschoolers' close connection to the ground, a child narrator walks with Mommy to the shoe store to replace worn-out sneakers. After trying a yellow pair ("a little pinchy"), the child chooses red ones ("Comfy! I like them!") and eagerly shows them to a friend. The loose watercolor and gouache illustrations give a downward-facing child's-eye view of each moment.
