About the Book: When Arturo the Parrot, whose job was to help greet people as they came into The Friendly Shoe Store, picked up and repeated a small boy's disgruntled comment---Shoes are for the birds!---it certainly changed the course of his life! This is Eudora Welty's only book specifically for young readers.
I first heard about this been when we visited the Eudora Welty House. I found a copy of The Shoe Bird at the library. It was a cute little book and had a cute little story. There was some educational aspects to it, mostly with words and saying and that most things have more than one meaning.
