Todo lo que Jeremy quiere es un par de esos zapatos, como los que llevan puestos los otros chicos de su escuela. Pero su abuela le explica que ellos no están para hablar de «quiero», sino de «necesito», y lo que Jeremy necesita son unas botas nuevas para el invierno. En esta historia, tierna y real, de Maribeth Boelts, ilustrada por Noah Z. Jones, un niño comprende que las cosas que él tiene —unas botas abrigadas, una abuela que lo quiere y un buen amigo— son mucho más importantes que las cosas que él quiere.

 

English Description:

All Jeremy wants is a pair of those shoes, like the ones the other kids at his school wear.

In this cute and real story by Maribeth Boelts, illustrated by Noah Z. Jones, a boy understands that the things he has - warm boots, a loving grandmother, and a good friend - are much more important than the things he has. What he wants.
