Your review was funny. I have grandkids that want to steal my reading device all the time. This personal touch included in the review was excellent.

“Mum, The Fairies Stole my Glasses” by Tracey C. Ayres is a picture book for children. The main character is Sally, a girl that has trouble seeing without her glasses. Sally preferred outfits that went well with her glasses so while trying on clothes she tossed her glasses to the side. A short while later Sally’s mom notices that Sally is not wearing her glasses so she tells her to go get her glasses. Sally searched her room to no avail and then blamed the fairies for taking her glasses. Read this book to your children, grandchildren and/or great grandchildren to find out what happened to Sally’s glasses and if she finds them. Very good review.

This seems like an interesting and intriguing book for the little ones. I'm sure they would be hooked in to this exciting plot with a little bit of suspense. And the illustrations also makes me feel like reading the book although I'm an adult. Congrats on BOTD!!

I loved wearing my glasses, realizing you can actually see the world, for me, was amazing! But I know there are thousands of kids that can relate to Sally.

With an amazing storyline and colorful pictures, this book will definitely be enjoyed by children. I hope Sally finds her glasses. This suspenseful book will keep children guessing and engaged!

This book sounds like an adorable, entertaining, and suspenseful story for young readers. I wonder already if fairies stole Sally’s glasses and, if not, what happened to them. I might even share this book with my niece as well. Thank you for the helpful review.

This seems like a great book for kids, and it sounds like your niece was the perfect audience. I'm guessing the moral of the story is that you shouldn't worry about what you look like wearing glasses?

This will be a perfect fit for children as they join Sally in searching for her glasses. I don't read children's books, so I'll pass on this one.
