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 - 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.
