Originally, cars were invented to save people time and provide convenience, but due to improper handling of the contradiction between modernization and the environment, car speeds are often slower than walking speeds. This story uses extremely humorous ideas and imagination to bring the phenomenon of traffic jams into children's lives, turning it into a very fun thing. It turns out that Mary's mother, due to traffic jams, simply turned off the engine and let the cars behind push her car to work every day. In this way, she saved the money she would have spent on fuel and bought Mary a pair of good shoes. Finally, one day, all the drivers started saving fuel money to buy a pair of good shoes like Mary's mother. This humorous story is very profound, and it will continue to reveal new insights as the child grows older.
