“The Shoe Book” is a fun book teaching children how to tie their shoes in a relatable way. Many students are embarrassed to admit that they do not know how to tie their shoes, especially if all of their friends know how to. However, they need to realize it can be dangerous if you are running around without your shoes tied. Tying your shoes can seem like a very daunting task but when someone breaks it down nice and slow for you, you can become a professional at it. Zach’s friend Kelly took him step by step so he could learn exactly how to tie his shoes and even when he did it she made him keep doing it because she knew that when you learn anything new you must continue to practice. When teaching your child to tie their shoes you must be patient with them and understand that they are frustrated and most likely embarrassed. You must break all the steps down and continue to practice with them just like Kelly and Zach did. ( )
