'You never really know a man until you stand in his shoes and walk around in them' (To Kill a Mockingbird)

Step into the shoes of the world's favourite princes and princesses, orphans and ogres. The footprints of these stories are visible all around the world - from Germany to Russia, from America to China. The golden slipper enables Cinderella to marry the prince, but the red shoes force a girl to dance for ever; the worn out dancing shoes give away the princesses' secret, but the Seven League Boots help the children escape from the ogre. Shoe, boot, slipper or sandal - footwear is the foundation of many of the world's best-loved folktales.
