The story was a bit hard to follow in places, but kids who love Elephant and Piggie tend to reread these books over and over again so I have faith that they'll eventually pick up what's happening in the story.

For: shoe lovers; readers looking for a book with drama and suspense.
Possible red flags: characters in distress; anticlimactic/awkward ending.

Like many of the books in the Elephant & Piggie Like Reading! series, this one is fun but weird. The story follows a girl picking out shoes to wear for the day. The shoes try to convince her to choose them, then try to talk her out of her decision when they do not agree with her. Weird, but fun. There are tons of puns (most of which will probably go right over kids heads) and silly illustrations.
I don't like these books quite as much as the Elephant and Piggie books, but they are still fun books to read aloud.

Just because they're not the same doesn't mean they don't go together! Another triumphant Gerald & Piggie book.

Meh. It is fine I guess but nothing really special. Also, I found the illustrations to be a bit on the creepy side.

Delightful to read to myself. It would be hard to read aloud, though. The illustrations are fun and Bryan Collier always does a great job. :)

Some funny moments and good for talking to younger readers about matching pairs and left/right.
