"” Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review)All Jeremy wants is a pair of those shoes, the ones everyone at school seems to be wearing. Though Jeremy's grandma says they don't have room for "want, " just "need, " when his old shoes fall apart at school, he 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 soon sees 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. |
