Two Left Feet in Bloomington, MN

She details her Italian/Sicilian family, their language customs, as well as the crazy cast of characters on her beloved block and schoolmates. It references the events and music of the day and focuses on her vivid imagination, dreaming that a brand-new pair of Red PF Flyers sneakers will give her the ability and superpower of flying.
