"""Buddy and the Green Galoshes is such an awesome book! The story of buddy and his green shoes is just adorable! It tells Buddy's story and how he got his green galoshes while teaching children that somethings are not what they seem if you just give it a chance! I love the author and her style of writing. She makes the book an easy read especially for those that are practicing reading chapter books. I happened to purchase for my 3 year old daughter. Although she can't read it herself, it's one of her favorite books. She loves Buddy! Highly recommended!"" Shannon ""A sweet story told from Buddy's point of view! Buddy and the Green Galoshes reminds us that although we all have personal struggles to overcome, there are so many people around us who will support, help, and love us! As a teacher, I also recommend this book for young accelerated readers, as the vocabulary level is robust, but the content is age-appropriate."" Karen"
