Summary: If the shoe fits' wear it!
Review: Excellent grade school picture book. Younger children will love the colorful illustrations and the lyrical rhyming language. Older children will appreciate the creative vocabulary and the mess the "Feet" get into. Mrs. Daniel's gets us to care about the delightful character of Handy Bob. Children will identify with all the fun activities that take place in an elementary school.I look forward to Teri Daniel's next book.

Review: Handy Bob, custodian at Lakeside school, works hard to keep his school spotless. He washes walls, dusts dim lightbulbs and shines doorknobs. But his hardest job, by far, is keeping the gym floor clean. No matter how often he mops and swabs the dirty footprints away, kids just keep tracking more grime and goo through the gym. From the kindergartners who shuffle by and the brownies who leave cookie crumbs behind, to Mrs Milton's dancing class and the art students dripping paint, Handy Bob's job is never done. And, just as he reaches his wit's end, the marching band troops through and ingeniously saves the day..... Teri Daniels has written a delightful and amusing story that will charm all youngsters 3-8. Her witty text, told in rhyme that children can help "read" and easily follow, is beautifully complimented by Travis Foster's bold, bright and expressive illustrations and kids will love watching the chaos unfold as Handy Bob tries to stay ahead of the ever-mounting mess on the gym floor. Complete with humorous ending that will have kids laughing out loud, The Feet in the Gym is a winner and makes a nice addition to all home bookshelves.

Summary: Rhonda Dotson from EKU Library Science
Review: This is a rhyming story about handy Bob, a janitor at Lakeside school. He has to constantly mop or "swab" the floor in the gym in order to clean after the children and their activities. He gets at his wits end when his clean-ups are short lived. The school band comes to the rescue and helps Bob to solve the problem. Teri Daniels' use of rhyming every two lines gives an upbeat rhythm to this humorous story. The brightly colored illustrations by Travis Foster contribute to the setting and plot of the story to allow the reader to become a part of Bob's world. My three year old, Brandon and myself really liked this story. We have read it several times. I think it will be read and enjoyed by many children over and over again!
