Tie Your Shoes! — Sue Hendra

As a brightly-colored green shoelace wends its way through this innovative, interactive board book, a curious cat and mouse try to guess its identity: Is it a tightrope? Minty toothpaste? Green spaghetti?  To each silly guess, a playful monster responds with a sensible answer until he convinces them that it is indeed a shoelace.  When the reader pushes the green lace through a hole to the last spread, it meets up with a red shoelace attached to a sneaker and the wise monster teaches the cat and mouse--and the reader--how to tie a shoe!  Combining the fun of a guessing game with exuberant artwork and irresistible characters, this shoe-pendous book is more than just fancy footwork.
