The Right Mate
Most people need a PAIR of shoes...one for the left foot and one for the right foot.
What if your shoes did not like each other? What if they were always bickering and fighting with each other?
This is the story of two soccer shoes that do not get along. Lefty is a very daring player on the soccer field and he loves to win. Dex is a team player and likes to see tie games because no one loses. They are complete opposites.
One night, Lefty decides to run away to look for a new mate. He meets many different shoes but none of them want to be his mate because they are not soccer shoes. They have no interest in soccer or playing games.
Lefty hears about a shoe down at the practice field who might be looking for a new mate. Viper is a green snaky-looking shoe who believes winning is the ONLY thing and he will do ANYTHING to win.
Lefty finds himself in a very dangerous situation and is very surprised to see his old mate Dex coming to his rescue!
My Thoughts
This is a very entertaining story that will teach children lessons about friendship, sportsmanship and loyalty.
The dynamic color illustrations are perfect for this story and add real value to the text. Children will love the expressions on the faces of the characters in this story.
There is just enough adventure and suspense in this book to keep children's attention to the very end. Highly recommended as a read-aloud or for silent reading. An excellent selection for children of all ages!
