A king who hates bathing can no longer stand his own smell, but after three hours in the river he refuses ever to bathe again unless someone can keep his feet from getting dirty the moment he leaves the water.
Penelope removes her too-tight sneakers on the way to school, thereby setting the stage for a series of disastrous encounters between her feet and a variety of messy substances.
“Betcha I can tell ya / Where ya / Got them shoooes. / Betchadollar, / Betchadollar, / Where ya / Got them shoooes. / Got your shoes on your feet, / Got your feet on the street, / And the street’s in Noo / Awlins, Loo- / Eez-ee-anna. Where I, for my part, first ate a live oyster and first saw a naked woman with the lights on. . . . Every time I go to New Orleans I am startled by something.” So writes Roy Blount Jr. in this exuberant, character-filled saunter through a place he has loved almost his entire life—a city “like no other place in America, and yet (or therefore) the cradle of American culture.” Here we experience it all through his eyes, ears, and taste buds: the architecture, music, romance (yes, sex too), historical characters, and all that glorious food. The book is divided into eight Rambles through different parts of the city. Each closes with lagniappe—a little bit extra, a special treat for the reader: here a brief riff on Gennifer Flowers, there a meditation on naked dancing. Roy Blount knows New Orleans like the inside of an oyster shell and is only too glad to take us to both the famous and the infamous sights. He captures all the wonderful and rich history—culinary, literary, and political—of a city that figured prominently in the lives of Jefferson Davis (who died there), Truman Capote (who was conceived there), Zora Neale Hurston (who studied voodoo there), and countless others, including Andrew Jackson, Lee Harvey Oswald, William Faulkner, Tennessee Williams, Jelly Roll Morton, Napoléon, Walt Whitman, O. Henry, Thomas Wolfe, Earl Long, Randy Newman, Edgar Degas, Lillian Hellman, the Boswell Sisters, and the Dixie Cups. Above all, though, Feet on the Street is a celebration of friendship and joie de vivre in one of America’s greatest and most colorful cities, written by one of America’s most beloved humorists.

A play based on a traditional tale from India.
A play based on a traditional tale from India. This is a play based on a Indian folktale. The king was musty and finally decided to bathe. Once he bathed and walked through the courtyard, his feet got dirty. It's a funny tale to read as the servants try to first, tell the king that he doesn't smell good and then to figure out that he can't walk around without shoes and keep his feet clean. There are several ideas that don't work! Then an ingenious servant has an idea!
A funny and imaginative look at the invention of shoes, that will tickle readers great and small Once upon a time there were no shoes, and there was a king who refused to wash his feet. "Pongsoles!," "Wifferfeet!," "Stinkitoes!," giggled the children behind his back. So the Royal River was prepared and the King went in for a Royal Bathe. But was washing his feet just this once the solution to the problem? Of course not. "From the Trade Paperback edition.
