A community of diverse shoes lives in a closet at the end of a hallway. They represent many colors, sizes, and uses. The shoes struggle with a superficial social order, just like kids do at school and adults at work. The closet is ruled by Lucy Le Shoe, a very self-centered, obnoxious, yet beautiful set of red pumps. She is not shy about letting all of the other shoes know how special she thinks she is. Closet life is disrupted when an old, beat-up sneaker named Sneak the Sneaker moves in. Sneak the Sneaker is a wise, understanding, and forgiving shoe who has figured out what is really important in life. Sneak the Sneaker is a story of peer pressure and bullying. You will enjoy watching Sneak the Sneaker teach all the other shoes a lesson about self-esteem and kindness. He lets them know that being what they are is precisely the right thing for them to be.
