Read Free Books and Download eBooks

What do you want to be when you grow up? People work in various jobs. Very often, clothes fit the job. The right shoes, for example, can make a job easier or safer. A nurse wouldn't wear construction boots, and a construction worker wouldn't wear ballet slippers. There is the right shoe for every job. Steve Swinburne explores various occupations through a simple, lively text and bright, colorful photographs. The book includes a guessing game that invites young readers to guess which shoe matches which job. This Library Media Connection Editor's Choice book offers a unique way of asking children what they want to be when they grow up.

Yellow crocs, purple crocs, orange crocs, black crocs, and lilac crocs. Almost every youngster likes crocs, but there are many different kinds of shoes that people wear in certain circumstances, unless of course they like their toes to touch the grass when they go barefoot. When you are a baby, "the first shoes you ever wore were soft and very small." In the winter time boots are the footwear of the day and in the summer many children wear flip-flops. Shoes come in many sizes and colors. For different jobs there are different kinds of shoes or boots and in this book you may know which go with which job, but on the other hand you may just have to guess.If someone told you about pointe shoes, you might not know what they were talking about, but if you saw a pair you might immediately know that ballerinas wear them. There are all kinds of boots and shoes in this book, but you'll have to match the boot to the person or occupation. How about a pair of mud boots? If you saw a pair, some hay and a cow, perhaps you'd guess they belonged to a farmer and you would be correct. Each picture has little visual hints for you to follow and when you've made your guess or know the answer you can turn the page and find out. Each shoe or boot can be a little mystery, one that you can solve if you think quickly and look at the clues on each page!This is a book that will make youngsters put on their thinking caps and solve the mystery of who owns which shoes or boots. This is a nice book for children to work on their visualization skills, comparing the visual clues with information they may already know, and "solve" a mini mystery. For many children this will prove to be a fun and interesting activity.
