A young girl is sacrificed to the local dragon by her aunt because they can no longer afford to keep her. Unfortunately, the dragon doesn't quite know what to do with her. His collection specialty is shoes, not people, and is tired of being accosted by knights and others. The young girl helps him and in return he offers her a chance to choose a pair of shoes from his collection. She chooses and then sets off for the city to earn her way as a seamstress. Along the way she encounters more dragons and collects an interesting set of friends. The shoes, however, turn out to be more dangerous than anyone thought - to the dragons. The girl must work with her friends to help save the dragons. There are three books so far in this series.
