Synopsis
A boy is unhappy about having to wear glasses, until his doctor provides an imaginative list of well-adjusted eyeglass wearers.

When a young boy complains that wearing glasses will make him "look like a dork," his eye doctor points out that all kinds of people, from moms to movie stunt actors, wear glasses. Unfortunately, the doctor also believes that worms and potatoes wear glasses. Will this odd doc convince the boy to become a bespectacled spectacle?

Publisher's Note
In 29 fuzzy and 10 clear pictures, Lane Smith brings into focus the glasses experience, neutralizing a young boy's stubborn refusal to become a bespectacled spectacle. "Smith demonstrates 20/20 vision for the sarcastic, zany humor that children adore".--Publishers Weekly. An ALA Notable Children's Book. Full color.

Industry Reviews
PW found this zany tale in which an odd optometrist tries to convince his young patient to wear specs a ``visual treasure trove.'' Ages 5-up. (Feb.)
Bernstein
