[ 책 소개 ]
오랜 여행에서 돌아오신 할머니께서 반짝반짝 빛나는 빨간 댄싱화를 선물로 사오셨어요. 이 댄싱화를 신고 있으면 몸이 저절로 빙글빙글 돌고 신나게 움직이는 것 같습니다. 바라만 보아도 한없이 기분이 좋아지는 예쁜 댄싱화... 어려서부터 그네도 밀어주고 예뻐해주신 작은 할머니께 댄싱화를 보여 드리고 싶었어요. 그러나 작은 할머니께 가는 도중 그만 돌뿌리에 걸려 진흙창 속에 넘어지고 말았죠. 반짝반짝 빛났던 예쁜 댄싱화가 시커먼 진흙을 뒤집어 쓴 것을 보자 그만 울음이 터져나왔죠. 그리고이 신발을 신고 있어도 더 이상 그 전 같이 몸이 신나게 움직여 주지를 않습니다. 하지만 작은 할머니는 감쪽 같이 신발을 옛날 모습으로 돌려 놓고... 새 신발을 신고 소녀가 기뻐하는 모습, 따뜻한 가족애 등을 사실적인 유화그림으로 잘 표현하고 있습니다.

Book Description
"A little African-American girl loves her new shoes so much that she is compelled to dance through her neighborhood, showing them off to her friends and family. When she trips and gets the shoes dirty, she thinks they are ruined, but her favorite aunt restores their 'magic.'...An emotionally convincing slice of life."—Horn Book.
Publisher's Weekly
Returning from a trip, Grandmama brings presents for her family. ``But my present was the most special. It was a pair of the finest, reddest, shiniest shoes that anyone had ever seen,'' declares the likable African American girl who narrates this unassuming yet agreeable story. Impatient to try out--and show off--her gift, the child takes a walk with her older sister. But when she starts running toward her great-aunt Nen's house, she takes a tumble, which leaves her shoes ``sticky and blotchy and muddy.'' The child is devastated until Nen, predictably, restores them to their pristine condition. Patrick's narrative gets a big boost from Ransome's ( How Many Stars in the Sky? ; All the Lights in the Night ) expressive oil paintings, which convincingly impart the joy, fleeting disappointment and gratitude this youngster experiences during an eventful afternoon. The full page, bordered illustrations are complemented by smaller spot art beneath each page of text--a pitcher of lemonade promises relief, a squirrel observes the narrator's perambulations.
Children's Literature
This book tells of a girl who gets red shoes, falls down, gets them dirty, and gets them cleaned up. Slice of life stories may be authentic, but they aren't up to the standards set by solid contributors like Walter Dean Meyers, Eloise Greenfield, Patricia McKissack, and Ashley Bryan.
MultiCultural Review
Readers will glimpse into a friendly community of African-American homeowners and shopkeepers. Patience and caring attributes are clearly evident. . .. The child's feelings are not treated lightly; the aunt comforts her niece with seriousness and respect. Ransome's realistic and colorful paintings enhance this simple and delightful story. |
