Synopses & Reviews
Feet Man has two gigantic problems – his feet. His foot size is
triple-extra-umpteen-large. He has never found a shoe that fits
him, and whenever people see him, they always point and make
fun of him. But then one day he discovers a tiny man stuck
between his toes – Mr. Tiny, to be exact. Mr. Tiny has his share
of problems, too, but he doesn’t let them bother him. He knows
that everyone, no matter how unusual, has a talent. And when
Mr. Tiny spots an advertisement for the Husky Puppy Shoe
Company in the newspaper – “If We Can’t Fit Your Size, We’ll
Give You a Giant Prize!” – he knows that Feet Man is a shoe-in
to win.
With lively illustrations and pun-ny read-aloud text, this
friendship between two characters of vastly different shoe size
demonstrates that sometimes it takes an outsider to help us
discover what we are best at.
