Jerry's New Shoes
by
Tanya New-Chester
I counted his legs: their number was eight, That’s six more than mine to hold his small weight. I also did notice his feet were un-shoed— how could I make comment without seeming rude? Jerry the spider needs a few more shoes than you or I, since he has more feet—and yet he has none at all! Thankfully, what he does have is a good friend, who’s going to help him find the perfect set. A warmhearted story about creative re-use, self-expression, and the power of friendship to turn any problem into an adventure.
Tanya New-Chester is a biologist, a swimmer, a nature lover, and a parent who tells stories to her own children. My Unexpected Friend was born of an experience of her own with a spider. It was then brought to life by the warm encouragement of a family who has always loved her poems.
