Yes, I agree with you. Pictures appeal to them more than words alone. Thanks a lot for reading and commenting on my review.

This seems like a book that people who wear glasses can relate to. I'm curious to find out if the fairies really did steal her glasses. Great review!

This looks like such a cute book. My mom is also British so my kids would really enjoy the British language in this book.

I can totally relate to Sally! She sounds like an imaginative child. The author obviously developed her character well if she's already coming to life in the review. Your review was enjoyable to read. Thanks for sharing your niece's view as well. :D

This seems like a nice book for children, who can get intrigued by the mystery of the missing glasses and learn something new about eyesight and its checkup. A book to recommend to kindergarten teachers as well. Thank you for your great review!

I loved how this book connected your niece. I agree that the storyline is clever, and my niece will definitely enjoy it too. I appreciate how the illustrations correlated with the story and are intriguing to the eye. Children can connect easily with Sally and with the story. Thank you for writing a thoughtful and honest review!

Today's BOTD is a children's book that follows Sally, a young girl who's convinced fairies have stolen her glasses. Young readers will find the situation and characters relatable and the illustrations and storyline engaging. This sounds like an awesome read for young readers! Thank you so much for your review! It was really helpful! :-)

Your review was personal and engaging. The sample pages were beautifully illustrated and narrated. As a child, I hated my glasses too, so I can totally relate to this funny disappearance of Sally’s glasses. Congratulations on being selected BOTD!

Children who have to wear glasses will learn that they are not the only one who detests wearing glasses and better understand the importance of taking care of them. Thank you for your review.
