“Franny’s Feet” This show can be seen on the PBS Kids network. It is an animated show and only 11 min. long. 
The main character is a little 5 1/2 year old girl, named Franny who goes to work with her grandfather. Franny’s grandfather is a shoe repairman and is bought a new pair of shoes to repair each episode.
Whenever grandpa puts the customer’s shoes in the basket, Franny tries them on. When she puts her feet in the shoes she is magically taken on an adventure to someplace the shoes have been before. The origin of the shoes determines the location of her adventure. She may go to Jamaica, Alaska, Australia or other places around the globe. On her trip she learns about a new place, meets a new friend and helps to solve a problem while she is there.
Franny is a very likeable cahracter, but I do feel bad that she just sits at her grandfather’s shop all day. AND….does Franny not know about Athlete’s Foot?? Why would she try on every single pair of shoes that come into the repair shop? Ewww Franny!! But in all seriousness this is a cute show, and not only for girls or shoe-lovers.
