Aside from the intriguing storyline, this book also has a lovely cover that is sure to attract children! With the mention of corresponding illustrations and a good hold on the suspense, I believe this is a well-rounded book. Thank you for sharing the story about your niece. I'm glad it served as a good bonding activity for you! Congrats to the author on the BOTD!

I love reading children's book because they are laden with simple Interesting stories. I will read "Mum, The Fairies Stole my Glasses" by Tracey C Ayres to know if the fairies actually stole Sally's glasses.

I used to love suspenseful books, even as a child, so I'm glad to see it in this book. I also think it's important to teach kids the importance of taking care of their glasses and that they are not alone in not liking to wear them. This seems like a great book all around. Congratulations and great job on the review.

After reading the sample, I felt this would be a book of interest for young children. I have to wholeheartedly agree with the review that the book will grab the attention of children and keep their interest until they find out whether fairies did take the glasses.

The fact that this child’s personality is instantly perceived from the author’s description of her actions, lets you know the child is a handful. The reviewer was on point to bring a child in to assist with the assessment of this children’s story.

Taking note of the illustrations and the fact of new vocabulary was definitely a plus. This review was informative and helpful in making the choice to purchase.

This seems like a fantastic book for kids. I like the idea of a child enjoying a book after you've purchased one for them; it's wholesome! I enjoyed the review and would love to acquire a copy for my nephew as a bedtime story.

Picture stories appeal to children a lot. It is thoughtful of the author to employ it in the story. I am certain it will continuously capture the interest of the intended audience and more. I am eager to know what happened to Sally's glasses as well. Beautiful review.

If the book is as interesting to read as your review then it will be worthwhile. Your niece is evidence of the book's appeal, which may have been enhanced by the reading device 😀

A picture storybook will definitely appeal to small children! Kids love a bit of mystery and suspense so will relate to the storyline.
Thank you for an excellent review.
