Sneakers by Blake Hoena
Sneakers grew out of efforts to make more durable, more comfortable shoes--and became a major link between sports and fashion. Their sales rose with the popularity of tennis and exploded along with basketball, leading to celebrity endorsements, big-name brands, and continued technological breakthroughs. In the twenty-first century, sneakers are still evolving, along with "sneaker influencer" social media, smart tech, and other hot new trends.
Blake Hoena grew up writing stories about robots conquering the moon and trolls lumbering around in the woods behind his parents' house--the fact that the trolls were hunting for little boys had nothing to do with Blake's pesky brothers. He pursued a Master of Fine Arts degree in Creative Writing from Minnesota State University, Mankato, and since graduating, Blake has written more than sixty books for children. Blake has published ABC picture books, graphic novels about space aliens, and retellings of classic stories such as Greek Mythology's Adventure of Perseus, a choose your path book.
