Glasses - who needs em?

Some of it was scary. Their teeth looked funny. I laughed at what they saw. I wear my glasses too. My Mom and Dad liked the book, but when they read it to me, they left out a couple of things they thought might be too scary for me.

A whimsical tale of a young patient who needs some extraordinary examples

"Only dorks wear glasses," maintains the young patient, but it's up to the 'mad optometrist' to prove otherwise in Glasses: Who Needs 'em? From pink elephants and little green men to robots, the optometrist is convinced all could benefit in this zany, whimsical tale of a young patient who needs some extraordinary examples.

Super gift!

This book is a great gift for any kid who needs glasses. I am buying my third copy. I always buy it for each of my neices or nephews who get glasses. Also as a third grade teacher I keep it on my bookshelf to send home with students who need glasses. Lane Smith is one of my favorite illustrators and I certainly enjoy him in this writing effort.
