Irene’s white perspective and Charles’s Black perspective are inherent even when they begin by writing about a subject seemingly devoid of racial context: shoes.

As the children move on to poems involving their friends and families, readers sense a developing trust and warmth that culminates in a beautiful poem written by Irene and Charles together. Their different perspectives are largely due to race, but they grow into friends based on the many things they have in common. Show less
