Overview

Eight-year-old Susie Gardner’s Granny Ella comes to visit and help her granddaughter celebrate her birthday. Granny Ella brings Susie a very special birthday present … glittery, sequined red shoes that have magical powers. They allow Susie to travel back in time to learn important life lessons that will make it possible for this socially conscious young girl to solve present-day social problems. As you travel along with Susie, you will meet inspirational women who have helped shape our country’s destiny. On your journey, you will fly in a 1948 airplane to a foreign country, visit a real palace, and free yourself from kidnappers who are trying to disrupt a meeting of the United Nations. At every turn, adventure, mystery, and a yummy chocolate cake await you.
