While this story could be very relatable to parents who are trying to connect with their kids, this came off as very clingy and helicopter parent.
Every kid wants their parent to be involved in what they find joy in, but no kid wants their parent to be so involved that they take it on for themselves and this book kinda felt like that. 
Also the documenting of the whole shoe buying process seems like it was more for the mother's book deal then really trying to get involved.

I will say that anyone that tried to "get rich quick" or fell into the whole scalping mark up will find some level of enjoyment and break down to this audio book as well as anyone who has a real love for sneaker culture.
Ending on a 2.5 rating because this felt very forgettable and a little desperate of the mother which wasn't enjoyable.
