Book Description
But all the kids are wearing them! Any child who has ever craved something out of reach will relate to this warm, refreshingly realistic story. Features an audio read-along. "I have dreams about those shoes. Black high-tops. Two white stripes." All Jeremy wants is a pair of those shoes, the ones everyone at school seems to be wearing. But Jeremy’s grandma tells him they don’t have room for "want," just "need," and what Jeremy needs are new boots for winter. When Jeremy’s shoes fall apart at school, and the guidance counselor gives him a hand-me-down pair, the boy is more determined than ever to have those shoes, even a thrift-shop pair that are much too small. But sore feet aren’t much fun, and Jeremy comes to realize that the things he has -- warm boots, a loving grandma, and the chance to help a friend -- are worth more than the things he wants.

Worn
Author: Ellen Sampson
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350087181
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
In a culture preoccupied with newness and a fashion system predicated upon it, what is our attachment to clothes which are marked through use and why do they have the power to affect us so deeply? How are our relationships to footwear produced and maintained through the embodied practices of wearing, maintenance and repair? Through a focus on a single garment, the shoe, this book seeks to explore broader questions about the embodied experience of wearing and the affect of the worn. Originating in an experimental practice-based methodology which placed wearing at its centre, the project is extended through the author's practice of making, wearing and photographing shoes. The book presents the act of wearing as a tool for developing knowledge, of 'being in' or 'being with' rather than observing from the outside, and calls readers to reconsider the value of the marks of wear at a time when fast fashion reigns supreme and interest in damaged garments quietly increases.
