"BOOK DESCRIPTION
Publication Date: 1 Jun 2009
Overwhelmed by the realities of first-time motherhood and disillusioned with the corporate world, Jane trades in her Manolos for nappies, nipple shields and the foot spread of a yeti: a lifestyle choice her man-eating girlfriend, Rachel, thinks is taking retro chic just one step too far. Unlike the lovely Liz, who'd give anything to be in Jane's pram shoes. Desperate to reconnect with the outside world, Jane finds salvation in her local New Mothers Group, a nonagenarian neighbour, and a royal duo of bloggers dedicated to shoes and behind-the-scenes celebrity gossip. Meanwhile, her unlucky-in-love best friend, Fi, thinks she's found THE one - Marco. Should Jane be concerned that Marco is a handsome, intelligent, Italian shoe designer with a passion for teaching his craft to bored housewives? Or that her work-focussed husband is spending increasingly long hours at the office A heart-warming and timeless tale of the transition from career-girl to new mum, The Shoe Princess's Guide to the Galaxy is a sassy and sparkling debut about one modern woman's attempts to put her best foot forward.
REVIEW
'A tale of love, friendship and shoes ... what more could a girl want?' Cosmopolitan Australia Books of the Month 'A fun book if you love shoes and especially good for those who may have traded their stilettos for a pram recently and are in need of a little laughter in their life' SheSaid.au
ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Emma lives in Melbourne with her husband and two young children. She does not believe that you can ever have too many pairs of shoes.
