If you have a shoe feetish, I mean fetish, then this is the boots for …. I mean book for you. Okay, Farm Boots by Lisl H. Detlefsen is not an adult book, but it does have some really cute boots for the characters to wear in this rhyming book. Each person has a specific boot for a specific job and for lots of play. Here we see boots for mud, boots for puddles, boots for riding and boots for mucking out the stalls (make sure those are nice an sturdy).
The short, rhyming text is brightly illustrated by Renee Kurilla. They are all the colors of the rainbow, fresh and new. The details are what is needed to flesh things out and not be too overwhelming. The boots mentioned are mostly for the kids, but they are for grown ups too. Not to mention there are spring and winter boots to boot! There is even a glossary at the end talking about the boots as well (such as hip boots, rubber boots, ankle boots, and snow boots).
Read via Edelweiss, this toddler to preschool book is due at the perfect boot wearing time, mid-March 2023. But you can read this book anytime, anywhere, even if you are not wearing your favorite pair (your second favorite is fine, too, or none at all).
I was in the right mood for this book, but I had a sneaky suspicion of this becomes your child’s favorite, it might get a medium bit old quickly. So, you have been warned!
