Bookroo's summary

Sadie, with three older brothers, rarely chooses her clothes, but her shoes are her own. She finds the perfect sparkling pair, only to lose one during a creek adventure. Faced with a single silver shoe, Sadie must navigate the challenges of self-expression and creativity. Can she find a way to turn this mishap into a new opportunity? Join Sadie on a journey of resilience and friendship, where the smallest choices can lead to the biggest adventures.

From the publisher

When shoes are the only thing you get to pick out yourself, what happens when you lose one of them? A tale of self-expression and friendship, told with humor and charm. With three older brothers to pass along hand-me-downs, Sadie doesn’t have much say in choosing her clothes. Her outfits always look interesting, though (even if some kids at school might not think so). But Sadie is allowed to pick her shoes, so one day she buys the most beautiful shoes ever – shoes that sparkle in the sun, shoes she wears everywhere. That is, until Sadie and her brothers hop down a creek on an adventure, and one shoe falls off and is swept away. Whatever will Sadie do with one silver shoe? From a winning picture-book team comes a story of creativity, resilience, and like-minded souls that is sure to appeal to independent thinkers everywhere.
