Those Shoes by Maribeth Boelts

4.0

I read this book in preparation for a money themed storytime/program and it was very cute. I could see this working for several age groups to explain the value of money and having money--or not having it--to spend. It also illustrates the difference between wants and needs well. This was my favorite book to read in preparation for this program.

For: parents/caregivers looking for a book to start the money conversation with young readers.

Possible red flags: depictions of poverty and lower income living situations.
