night. Nothing comes easy for newcomer Jimmy but he works hard until he can launch his own
business. At his Lucky Shoes Jimmy specializes in shoes made just for the customer. Before
long Jimmy starts to make waves in the London fashion scene. One day he gets a call from a

rest is history! From author Patricia Tanumihardja and New York Times bestselling illustrator
