Synopsis:

Baby loves his brand-new white shoes, taking them all over the neighborhood while his frantic mom chases behind him. But he just can’t resist stomping through puddles, squishing fallen plums, and dancing in fresh paint. It isn’t long before those white, high-jumping, fast-running shoes are speckled and spotted with every color of the rainbow.

Book Excerpt:

Baby's got some brand new shoes,

white as light, stripe of blue.

He passed over all the rest,

chose the ones he liked the best.
