This story is about cute bugs and the mysterious disappearance of their shoes. This plot will inspire sharing and caring amongst the kids. It is written for the kids of toddlers’ age. At this age, it happens that children take other people's things. And this story will teach them about how to apologize and care. The caterpillar that took the shoes apologized and returned them. Also, the story shows the kindness of the spider who came to help her, not like all beetles, who were only busy with themselves and their work. I am sure this story will inspire kids to be empathetic and kind. My name is Olga Oprunenco, and I am from Moldova. I graduated from the Fine Art Academy of Chisinau. I have collaborated with Scholastic Asia as an illustrator. This was an extremely inspiring experience that convinced me to work as both author and illustrator.

Each (alphabetically ordered) ant has her or his own personality which assists (or does not assist) in solving the case. The alphabet, perseverance, working as a team, looking for simple solutions to problems and interacting with different personality types are amongst the themes which can be explored and discussed in class or at home. The trouble all begins when Alan the ant cannot find his shoes. He is very angry about this. He needs to call on his entire family to help find them. They all have a role to play – but everything is not as it seems... Who has the shoes and where are they?

But Jeremy’s grandma tells him they don’t have room for "want," just "need," and what Jeremy needs are new boots for winter. When Jeremy’s shoes fall apart at school, and the guidance counselor gives him a hand-me-down pair, the boy is more determined than ever to have those shoes, even a thrift-shop pair that are much too small. But sore feet aren’t much fun, and Jeremy comes to realize that the things he has -- warm boots, a loving grandma, and the chance to help a friend -- are worth more than the things he wants.

Download or read book Little Shoes written by Pamela Everett and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-05-29 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1937, with the Depression deep and World War II looming, a California triple murder stunned an already grim nation. After a frantic week-long manhunt for the killer, a suspect emerged, and his sensational trial captivated audiences from coast to coast. Justice was swift, and the condemned man was buried away with the horrifying story. But decades later, Pamela Everett, a lawyer and former journalist, starts digging, following up a cryptic comment her father once made about a tragedy in their past. Her journey is uniquely personal as she uncovers her family's secret history, but the investigation quickly takes unexpected turns into her professional wheelhouse. Everett unearths a truly historic legal case that included one of the earliest criminal profiles in the United States, the genesis of modern sex offender laws, and the last man sentenced to hang in California. Digging deeper and drawing on her experience with wrongful convictions, Everett then raises detailed and haunting questions about whether the authorities got the right man. Having revived the case to its rightful place in history, she leaves us with enduring concerns about the death penalty then and now. A journey chronicled through the mind of a lawyer and from the heart of a daughter, Little Shoes is both a captivating true crime story and a profoundly personal account of one family's struggle to cope with tragedy through the generations.
