Best Answer

In the original US version of the book, they cost $10 ('Dad's ten dollar shoes'). In the UK version, they cost £7 (Dad's seven pound shoes).

Interestingly, the change from the original US currency to the UK currency is poetically pure but financially unsound. 'Pound' has one less syllable than 'Dollar'. Changing 'ten' to 'seven' fixes this and maintains the rhythm. But in 1958 when the book was written, £7 was worth about US$20!
