My little shoe maker

In the city of Lyon, in France, stood a small business called Cordonnerie wich means shoe shop in French. It was run by a man named Mr Botte. To the right stood a wooden, arched door with a golden door knob.

A fine woman with a yellow mustardy coloured dress walked up to the store’s window.  She was tall and had light yellow, tiny bow.


Then a menacing without warning vehicle flung  the door. A staff came out pointing right at me then a tall, skinny man came out of the door. He pointed the staff at me then the van hitting a button which made all of his shoes come out the woman walked over to my now to be competitor and bought a pair of his shoes.

That night he sadly sat at his desk trying to make better shoes than the guy who lived in the van. In the morning  Mr Botte got a bell and was lowering the price every day.

One night the competitor slipped a contract which was offering if he could buy his business. Mr Botte was about to sign it when all his shoes made up a plan. They spent all night creating it but in the morning it was ready. Mr botte was sent out to the man with a pair of golden shoes and the signed contract. The man looked at the contract and then took the shoes. The shoes were so beautiful he rushed to put them on then shoes just ran away with him in them.

My family taonga

My binoculars are as black as a moonless sky with a little bit of yellow.  The binoculars have a carved bit saying Brian Ramsey. The binoculars help me see far distances easily. They have been passed down from my dad’s dad before he passed away and then my dad gave them to me.

They are special to my family because they remind me of Brian. We will always keep this running in our family forever.

The binoculars help me imagine what my grandad was like and what he liked to do. I will hand the binoculars down to everyone in my family.  It is important to have family taonga because it helps you to feel connected to people in your family history. You can understand a little bit more about where you come from.
