Children grow quickly,especially their feet.But many families cannot afford new shoes each time.As a result,about 300 million children around the world go barefoot.Those children risk picking up diseases and parasites(寄生蟲)from the soil.
Kenton lee,an American,has a solution for those barefoot kids—a shoe that grows with the child.He explains how the shoe works and how it is able to last so long. "It grows in three places:the front,the sides with Velcro and the back with a buckle(鎖扣).It can last up to five years.The bottom is made of compressed rubber(壓縮橡膠),and the top is high-quality leajye.air.The shoes come in two sizes:small size that fits children aged 4 to 9 and large size for children aged 9 to 14."
Lee says he got the idea for the shoe while working as a volunteer in Kenya. "There were many children with too small shoes for their feet,but they were too poor to buy new shoes.So they had to cut open the front of the shoes to let their toes stick out.I wanted to do something to help them,so I invented these shoes."
Up to now,they have sent more than 50,000 pairs of shoes to 70 countries.A pair of shoes,he says,gives a child not only protection,but also self-worth.It's a small invention but really does make a big difference to these children's life.
