I loved how the friendship came out of nowhere and was one of the the most genuine and selfless friendships I've ever read about in a book. I enjoyed the build up of the friendship throughout the book, the author did very well in expressing the connection between the two characters through the sandal. Most people looking at the front of the book would never expect the true meaning behind the book. I would read this again and recommend to others especially when people are becoming a bit ungrateful. Lastly, the author does amazing job at helping the audience understand the type of place that the two girls were in and the hardships they face. But at the end having a complete selflessness. This book, Four Feet, Two Sandals, is a good book. First, the plot explores an idea you haven't usually seen in picture books, a refugee camp in Pakistan. It is a very lighthearted book showing two girls sharing a pair of sandals that will make you want the story to go on. Another thing that makes the book good is that it pushes the reader to think about those issues in the middle east of children having to share a pair of sandals while they seek help from fleeing Afghanistan. The big idea in this book is that there is always hope in bad situations and that sharing can make a bad situation better. A moving picture book beautifully illustrated with much detail to facial expression, landscape and cultural norms. Two girls in a refugee camp share a pair of sandals and bond over their shared trauma of losing family to war and becoming refugees. As in a few of our other class reads, we get a glimpse of the denial of education to girls and the luck of getting chosen for a new life in a free country. A culturally important selection to illustrate current events and the universality of friendship and compassion. A wonderful selection for comprehension work.

Two little girls from Afghanistan living in a refugee camp in Pakistan bond over a pair of shared shoes in this sad but moving little tale. It's sort of happy ending from 2007 is undercut when one remembers how many desperate Afghan people were left behind when the U.S. withdrew from Afghanistan in 2021. ( )
