Karen Lyn Williams: Once we met, Khadra and I immediately became friends. This led me to Karen Williams and resulted in our collaboration. Since I'm not an author and don't know much about the publishing world, I looked into working with an author with international experience. When I was unable to discover any, I wrote the story of Lina and Feroza and Four Feet, Two Sandals. I decided to look for stories about refugee children. As a Somali, I am a natural storyteller, and I would often tell my children and other children stories. A young refugee girl asked me why there weren't stories about children like herself. Khadra Mohammed: In my work with refugees, I often read stories to children since their parents are unable to read English. Where did you get the idea for Four Feet, Two Sandals?
