Shoes — Elizabeth Winthrop

Here are ""shoes to skate in, shoes to skip in, shoes to turn a double flip in""! A sweet and charming rhyming look at a favorite topic for pre-K and kindergarten kids—perfect for anyone helping children learn to tie their shoes.

The art by William Joyce—whose books include George Shrinks, the Guardians and Dinosaur Bob series,, and the #1 New York Times bestselling The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore, which is also an Academy Award–winning short film—was praised by Booklist as ""animated, energetic, and warmly colored.""
