Grandma has oodles and oodles of shoes. Walking shoes, dancing shoes, fancy and plain, Grandma has a shoe for every occasion. So why are these scratched and dusty old ones so special? A picture book for young children about a grandmother's journey as a little girl from Vietnam to Australia, this is a refugee story told through engaging illustrations and a gentle, rhythmic story. A short fact section at the back of the book introduces children to the history of Australian immigration. This sensitively told story encourages children to understand the plight felt by refugees, in the past and today, and to appreciate the contribution that refugees have made in shaping this nation.
Children's picture story book. A child whose grandmother has died dream-travels at night in her old shoes to memories of the grandma's life, while by day healing comes gradually to the family. Reissued with new illustrations in 2000.
Grandma took a trip back to her childhood home in 1954. She took copious notes and photos on her travels, so she could revisit her adventure time and time again. Years later, I found the journal and felt as if I were traveling alongside her.
Residents of a Sudanese village rejoice when a traditional water storage method is replaced by modern technology, but Fatima's grandmother knows there is no substitute for the reliability of the baobab tree.
Great-grandma's secret makes for a wonderful surprise at the party celebrating her one hundredth birthday.
My grandmother was a very strict woman. She did not care that how she said things sounded like she was yelling. She would tell you to say Madam Viper or Lady Viper. She was very formal, strict, and fancy. She would dress in clothes from the 1800s and her favorite was the Gibson Girl. And she did not like the punk and or rock clothes Id wear. I was never into all the fancy girly-girl clothes. What I mean is the dresses. I dislike dresses! I mean even as a little kid. I didnt even play dress up and have tea parties. Sorry Madam, but I dont know what Ive done this time, I yelled back as I turned around to get away. Ive missed you Abigail, Madam Viper said. Oh thats a big fat lie! I shouted. Abigail Ferrari Viper, Dont you dare shout at me! Madam Viper yelled. No! Im done listening to all of your strict stuff, because you never cared once that I was alive you didnt! Tiffany and Helen never had to try for their accustoms from you! But I did and not once did you accept me. I yelled in tears. Abigail please listen to me, Madam Viper begged. NO GRANDMOTHER! I yelled crying as I ran back into the school.

Written by Pauli Murray the legendary civil rights activist and one of the founders of NOW, Proud Shoes chronicles the lives of Murray's maternal grandparents. From the birth of her grandmother, Cornelia Smith, daughter of a slave whose beauty incited the master's sons to near murder to the story of her grandfather Robert Fitzgerald, whose free black father married a white woman in 1840, Proud Shoes offers a revealing glimpse of our nation's history.
