Es una tierna historia, me recuerda a mis hermanos y a mi cuando tuvimos nuestros primeros lentes

Wow, what a fun little read this was.

It is about a girl who can't see well, and everyone around her notices that. However the girl herself doesn't want glasses. Nope, not at all. She can see just fine!

It was brilliant to see in how many ways she didn't see well. You could see her come in with a skunk, thinking it was a cat. Or her reading a book upside down. Even in class, she was standing on the desk instead of sitting.

I loved her parents, and how her mom just put her in the car without saying where they were going.

I loved the glasses, and how the girl was at first like, I don't need glasses, and then poof, she could see and she was all quiet. :)

The illustrations are top-notch, really colourful and fun to see.

I would recommend this book to everyone who needs a fun, short read.

And I normally don't add images, but I just had to share this one:

Paige can see just fine... except she thinks a skunk is a kitten and she can't read the chalkboard. Perfectly captures the experience of getting glasses and going to the eye doctor. Super cute!

Getting my first pair of glasses at age 10, this book grabbed my heart from the go. My 2 & 4yo kids love the humor, details, and memorable refrain from Paige. They shouted along with her on the first reading!

There are very few books for children about getting glasses that are not lame. This one is definitely not that. Colorful, fun and pastel-like but clean illustrations, I Can See Just Fine makes a great recommendation for those little ones who need glasses. There are a lot of fun little details in the illustrations that readers will enjoy discovering.

super cute. I love the illustrations and the story is very entertaining, and will likely be soothing for kids needing glasses and worried about the experience
