She may only be eight, but Sophie Trow is a girl who knows her mind. And what she wants, what she really really wants, is a pair of dinosaur shoes.

The problem is, when her mum took her to Clarks to buy her a new pair of shoes, Sophie was told that the dinosaur shoes were for boys only.

In fact, Sophie was told that Clarks Stomp Claw range weren’t suitable for ‘female bone structure’.

She could have pink shoes with flowers or shiny black patent numbers, but her beloved dinosaurs were a no-no.
