Whose Shoe?

by Margaret Miller

Guess whose shoe! Ballet dancers, hockey players, clowns, babies, and horses are just some of the people (and animals) who wear distinctive footgear. Babies (and their older siblings) will have a wonderful time figuring out who wears the various shoes -- and why? From head ( Whose Hat? ) to toe ( Whose Shoe? ), Margaret Miller's stunning books have something for everyone.

Sort of awesomely dated photos from 1991 of different kinds of shoes. My 1.5-year-old daughter is obsessed with shoes and loved this book the moment we picked it up at the library. I like the guessing game format and that the photo spread answers feature adults using the shoes (or in one case a horse) and the opposing page fractures a child with the shoes.

Cute book that Au enjoyed at 29 months. Even mom learned a thing or two about "whose shoe." I like that they use actual (though dated) photographs and at least some images of children of diverse backgrounds.

Note: Photographs might make it dated but a great book

Different people wear different shoes. B

Guessing game on a (presumably) pre-school level, but the answers are really tricky (in my opinion), and it doesn’t help that the photos are from 1991.

Great, simple language and imagery for toddlers/preschoolers. Attention has been to paid to gender and racially balanced images as well.
