Go Go and the Silver Shoes
The next heartfelt picture book from the winning team of Jane Godwin & Anna Walker, about how a precious lost shoe leads a little girl to an even more precious friendship.
Go Go and the Silver Shoes tells the story of Go Go, who is confident and creative about her clothes, even though most of them are hand-me-downs from her three older brothers. The only new things she ever gets are underwear and shoes, which is why she loves new shoes, especially her latest and most precious silver shoes.
Despite her mother's warnings, Go Go wears them on a family picnic and loses one in the creek. Go Go is devastated, but continues to wear her one remaining silver shoe, until one day a new girl at school realises that she has one just like it...
This is a beautiful story about being confidently individual and about the power of friendship.
