Critics Review
“This is an important book as it raises questions for all children. It validates their fears and helps them to realise there is a way through. I look forward to using this book to help young children to empower themselves in the face of adversity.” – Educating Young Children
“This book addresses an important issue that children can face and highlights the importance of having children’s vision checked and monitored as it can impact greatly on educational and social development. The book has been beautifully illustrated by Marjorie Crosby-Fairall. A great picture book to read and look at, and one that will prove useful at home and in schools.” – Armadillo Magazine
