"There was an old woman who lived in a shoe"--there was a young/middle-aged/old woman who had so many shoes she didn't know what to do!...
Too many shoes? Not possible.
In Shoe-ology, a bright-colored, fun-designed gift book, shoes of every style, color and level of pretty, practicality and pain are illustrated and labeled, for example, sensible, sharp, sporty.
The author really captures the shoe's personality, or maybe it is better said the personality of the person likely to buy THAT shoe: "the people shoe (utility,),boots (that enthrall men,),or the dressed up "tennis shoe" worn to look sporty.
The last chapter is about slippers, those things you slip into after a day of wearing those fashionable or functional boots, stilettos or flats.
Since I have a shoe-fanatic friend, daughter and sister, don't tell her, but this book will be her next birthday present!
Armchair Interviews says: Creative and fun gift book for anyone who loves shoes and who will find themselves and their shoes on one of the pages.
