An orchestral ballet was composed by Lehman Engel and performed by the Jackson Ballet Guild in 1968.[2] A 2002 choral piece was also commissioned by the Mississippi Boy Choir and composed by composer Samuel Jones.[3] ReceptionReception of the novel was mixed, with critic Nancy Hardgrove calling most reviews in major publications "cordial but restrained".[4] However, reception amongst children's literature commentators was largely negative.[2] Kirkus Reviews described the novel as uneventful: "Practically no action occurs during the lengthy discussion, which consists almost entirely of a stream of witticisms, many of which are irrelevant."[1] The review concludes wryly "the overly wordy result is so obscure that readers are likely to want to leave dictionaries as well as shoes to the birds."[1] References1. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/eudora-welty/the-shoe-bird/|title=THE SHOE BIRD by Eudora Welty|website=Kirkus Reviews|language=en-us|access-date=2016-04-14}} {{Eudora Welty}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Shoe Bird, The}}{{1960s-child-novel-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=VsgBlpcPycAC&pg=PA269|title=Eudora Welty: A Writer's Life|date=22 December 2010|publisher=Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group|isbn=978-0-307-77388-3|page=269|author=Ann Waldron}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.samueljones.net/works/eudora.html|title=EUDORA'S FABLE: THE SHOE BIRD|last=|first=|date=|website=Samuel Jones – Composer|publisher=|access-date=April 13, 2016}} 4. ^{{Cite journal|last=Hargrove|first=Nancy D.|date=1992-06-01|title=Humor in Eudora Welty'sThe Shoe Bird|journal=Children's Literature in Education|language=en|volume=23|issue=2|pages=75–82|doi=10.1007/BF01141844|issn=0045-6713}} 6 : 1964 American novels|1964 children's books|American children's novels|Novels by Eudora Welty|American Southern literature|Fictional parrots |
