Rigo is tired of hand-me-downs. By the time his brothers are finished with their clothes, buttons are missing, knees are torn, and nothing feels like it truly belongs to him. Then, for his birthday, Rigo receives something wonderful: a pair of brand-new loafers, shiny and stylish and his alone.
But new things can bring new worries. After teasing makes Rigo hide the shoes away, he keeps them safe for so long that he begins to lose his chance to enjoy them. With help from family, he starts to see that the story behind an object can matter as much as whether it is new.
If the Shoe Fits is a warm, gentle picture book about siblings, pride, family memories, and learning what makes something valuable.
