Bunnies New Shoes

Illustrated by Lisa McCue Karsten

Review:

One morning Maxine Bunny wakes up and her toes have something to say, "Time for new shoes!"

While Maxine’s Mommy is getting dressed for the shopping fun, Maxine watches her favorite TV show about Spunky Spaniel. Spunky Spaniel has on one red shoe and one blue shoe and HMMMMM Maxine thinks she might like that too.

In the shoe store, Maxine sings the Spaniel Song.

"Hello, everybody, look at me.

I’m as spunky as I can be!

My hat is pink. I have one red shoe.

But isn’t it funny-the other one’s blue!"

She pick out some beautiful red shoes but she can’t have a red one and a blue one. Just then her friend Arthur Alligator comes in and he picks out a blue pair. Can they trade and each have one red and blue-No, Arthur Alligator has BIG feet. They do something else though so that they both are happy. Can you guess what it is?

"Here they are," said Mr. Muskrat. "Red shoes, size six."

Mr. Muskrat put one shoe on Maxine’s foot. But before he could put the other shoe on, Maxine said, "Now I need a blue one."
