That was Belinda. When she got to Paris, she was told, "Ah, Mademoiselle, we regret that your shoes went to Pago Pago. But do not worry, you will have them in a week." But Belinda was worried. Her performance was that night. Without the right shoes, she would be a flop!

The ballet company's littlest ballerina takes Belinda to a store to buy new pointe shoes. But none of the shoes fit Belinda's magnificent appendages.

In obtaining the silk and the shoe "form" for the cobbler to make her shoes, Belinda solves pressing problems for a fashion designer without a caterer for a gala and a baker with too much food from a cancelled party.

Belinda's stay in Paris shows how friends can help one another, with creativity and generosity, to achieve wonderful results.

[When you set a story in a real place, like Paris, it helps to be familiar with the way it looks, sounds, and feels. Find out how Belinda's Paris grew out of real-life research in 1% inspiration.]
